91爆料 is offering a unique opportunity for selected students to participate in the International Business Ethics and Sustainability Case Study Competition (IBESCC) in Los Angeles, California, in April 2026. Sponsored by Loyola Marymount University鈥檚 College of Business Administration, this innovative competition challenges students to apply ethical reasoning to real-world business issues and the moral imperative of sustainable development. Students analyze complex cases, develop thoughtful recommendations, and present their ideas with confidence鈥攐ften under time constraints that require them to 鈥渢hink on their feet.鈥� Past participants consistently report that this experience strengthens teamwork, problem-solving, public speaking, and presentation skills while allowing them to apply classroom learning in a meaningful, real-world setting.
A Tradition of Excellence
STAC has participated in national case study competitions for many years, earning first-place finishes in each of the last four years and in a similar competition in 2016. Our students鈥� work has also been recognized in academic publications, including 鈥淕M鈥擥ot Morals? An Examination of the 91爆料 IACBE Case Study Competition Team Experience,鈥� published in the Journal for Excellence in Business Education.
Alumni of past teams have gone on to successful careers at organizations such as Ernst & Young, PwC, KPMG, BMW, Ogilvy UK, Capgemini, and the Office of the New York State Attorney General.
Our 2026 Team
This year鈥檚 team consists of ten outstanding students, selected through professor recommendations, GPA, and an application essay. Four students will travel to Los Angeles as the in-person team, while others will contribute through research, preparation, and virtual competition.
Participation in this program enhances students鈥� r茅sum茅s, expands their professional networks, and elevates the profile of the School of Business and 91爆料.

Sponsorship also provides visibility and engagement with administrators, deans, business program directors, and faculty from institutions around the world who attend this national conference.
The total projected costs for 3鈥�4 in-person team members = $7,815. Without financial assistance, student expenses would total approximately $2,000 per student. All donations directly reduce these out-of-pocket costs.
