Net Impact empowers a new generation to drive social and environmental change throughout their careers. Founded in 2016, the University of Connecticut Graduate Net Impact Chapter’s goal is to meet the needs of graduate students who want to become effective change agents in the business world.

To this end, we will present an MBA Case Competition together with our Platinum Sponsor, United Technologies Corporation (UTC), at UConn’s Graduate Business Learning Center in downtown Hartford, CT, from March 22-23, 2018. The theme of the two-day competition is Sustainability, with a specific focus on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and related practices, such as “Creating Shared Value” and “Conscious Capitalism.”

Twelve pre-selected graduate business teams from the Northeast Region of the U.S. will have one week to analyze a CSR-themed business case and one day to finalize and present it to a panel of judges drawn from top regional corporations and business schools. Teams will compete for a total of $5,000 in cash prizes.
