University of Victoria business students have won an international business case competition in Switzerland for the second year in a row.
On the four-member team are masters of business students in the Sardul S. Gill Graduate School in UVic’s Peter B. Gustavson School of Business. The group won the Corporate Knights business competition at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
Students Laurent Sevigny, Mukesh Dhatwalia, Bhupinder Dulku and Dorothy Pan went to Davos to compete in the final round of the competition. Each school was given the task of finding ways to remove carbon from the holdings of the Norway Government Pension Fund Global. Worth about $940 billion US, the fund has been built from the surpluses of Norway’s petroleum income.
UVic beat out York University and North Carolina’s Duke University.
