Another Great Showing by JMSB at ICBC
In late November 2012, Concordia University's John Molson School of Business (JMSB) qualified for the final round of the Inter-Collegiate Business Competition (ICBC) in four categories: accounting, finance, human resources and debate.
The final round of the 2013 edition of the competition, which is held annually in Kingston, Ontario at Queen's University's Queen's School of Business, took place between January 3 and 5. The JMSB team had four podium finishes including the Chairperson's Award, given to the school exhibiting the most spirit throughout the weekend. This is the fourth year in a row that Concordia receives this honour.

| Marketing | Emma Craig and George Kossivas Coach: Peter Elenakis |
| Business Policy | Mark Donohue, Katerina Fragos and Alison Revine Coaches: Christian Bonneau and Haig Tachejian |
| Ethics | Thao Nguyen and William Hall Coaches: Rosalind Knitter and Tima Petrushka |

The John Molson Competition Committee would also like to extend a special thanks to Head Coach and Advisor to the Competition Program, Mark Haber, for his commitment and his contribution to the program.
The Committee would also like to thank its exclusive sponsor Pfizer Canada for their support of the competition program.
