JMSB Places Third at Ryerson’s 2012 Battle on Bay Street
Students Samer Balaghi, Michel Berger, Adam Forlini and Samuel Nasso represented Concordia University’s John Molson School of Business (JMSB) at the 2012 Battle on Bay Street, Ryerson University's Financial Management Case Competition. The JMSB team made its mark on the competition with an impressive third-place place finish.
“The Ryerson case was about Sustainametrics, a tech start-up developing a Smartphone app to help companies implement their sustainability strategy among their employees,” said Berger. “Our job was to value the start-up and determine the best way to finance its growth - it had a projected shortfall in the next year if it did not receive a cash injection. The professor who wrote the case told us we had the most accurate valuation.”
The final rankings were:
- University of Waterloo (team 1)
- University of Waterloo (team 2)
- Concordia University (John Molson School of Business)
Congratulations to the Concordia team for their comprehensive analysis and presentation of recommendations at the competition.
The competition committee would like to extend its thanks to Reena Atanasiadis, Amr Ezzat, Arthur Grabovsky and Thomas Horvath for their coaching.
Special thanks to Head Coach and Advisor to the Undergraduate Competition Program, Mark Haber for his dedication and support.
The team would also like to express its deepest gratitude to exclusive sponsor Pfizer Canada for their support and encouragement of the case competition program.
