This contest is intended to enable students to participate in an international contest that focuses on the practical case studies of family firms in the area of health.

Business studies are not a requirement, as good ideas for the success of a family firm in the health industry can originate from all fields across science. Therefore, the call is open to all students.

The contest consists of two rounds. The first one will be held fully online, while finalists of the second round will get the chance to travel to Szeged. The main tasks will be to solve 1 practical case study of a health industry related family firm in the first round, and solve a second case study if the student team reaches the second round of the contest.

This course is the first round of the competition and is held online. The second round of the competition will be held in the fall semester of 2025. 

Number of ECTS: 2
