KPMG is pleased to announce that the College of William & Mary has been chosen to participate in KPMG's International Case Competition (KICC) again this year. As one of only 30 universities selected, William & Mary students will have the chance to compete head-to-head against some of the brightest students across the country for the ultimate prize, an all-expenses-paid trip to the International Finals in Dubai, United Arab Emirates in April!
What It Is:
The KICC promises to be a unique and rewarding experience that will allow you and three friends to showcase your business acumen, network with KPMG professionals, and travel to new and exciting places. The first step of your journey to Dubai is competing against your fellow William & Mary students on Friday, November 21. The winning William & Mary team will then compete in the U.S. Regional Competition in Washington D.C. in January and possibly at the National Finals in New York City. Sound exciting? It gets even better. To simulate the tight deadlines and demands of today's business world, this case competition only requires a 48-hour time commitment. All you need is the case, two days to analyze the issues and make recommendations, and three friends to form your team.
How to Register:
To register your team, complete the form found at www.kpmg-go.com/kicc (look for the yellow "Register Your Team Here" box) by Monday, November 17 at 12:00 PM. Please note that teams must have 4 members (no more, no less) and that all participants must be intended or declared business majors, with at least 1 intended or declared accounting major. All team members must also have a valid passport to be able to compete at the International Finals.
