AMA New Orleans for College Students

4th Annual Undergraduate Case Competition

AMA New Orleans is excited to partner with AMA Tulane, Propeller, and the Tulane A.B. Freeman Business School to organize the 4th annual marketing competition providing students with real world experience, bragging rights, recognition from AMA New Orleans, and a cash prize!

Students who participate in the 4th Annual Student Marketing Case Competition will have the opportunity to present their marketing plans in front of Adobe representatives and marketing leaders from around Louisiana!

All students who enter the case competition will have the chance to: (1) gain real-world marketing experience by helping out a local business in need, (2) meet, learn from, and network with marketing leaders and decision makers in Louisiana, and (3) get some pretty cool Adobe swag.

And for the top two teams… cold, hard cash! The winning team gets $500 and second place gets $300 in prize money.
