Aguascalientes, Ags. February 2, 2023.- The High School Business Case Competition (High School BCC) is a Business Case competition organized by the Panamericana for high school juniors, which took place on February 1 and 2.
High School BCC
Throughout these two days, we hosted 70 students who made up 14 teams from various high schools in 6 cities in the country, such as Durango, Torreon, Leon, Irapuato, San Luis Potosi and Aguascalientes, who have worked and prepared to present a series of challenging cases of well-known companies.
Each team was made up of five students and a coach, who together were in charge of generating solution proposals for the respective cases, as well as defending these proposals before a jury made up of specialists in the field.
The High School BCC is organized by the School of Economics and Business Administration, in coordination with Aldo Alfieri Arellano, director of the DBL Project.
"The objective is to give the children a space before they enter university so that they can develop analytical skills, teamwork, develop transversal and multidisciplinary skills, and understand in some way how to work at Universidad Panamericana and IPADE," said Aldo.
First day
During the first day of the High School BCC, the authorities assigned 2 cases to each of the 14 teams, which the students prepared and presented to the jury, and their skills were put to the test.
