A University of Mary Washington capstone experience offered a sweet treat to business students this semester.<\/p>\n

Teams from the 400-level Strategic Management course came together to analyze a business scenario involving a four-way merger that produced Canadian ice cream company Top Glaciers. They presented their findings \u2013 including proposals for how to increase profits \u2013 last week at the annual Endowed Live Case Competition. The Shark Tank<\/em>-like event, held in Woodard Hall, features real business professionals as judges, real cash prizes for winners and scoops of real-world experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn event like this simulates real-world scenarios and allows students to apply what they\u2019ve learned in the classroom throughout their academic careers,\u201d said College of Business Dean Filiz Tabak. \u201cIt helps them develop practical skills such as presenting in front of experienced judges, problem-solving, critical thinking, leadership and team building. These are invaluable skills for career success in the business world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sprinkled on top, the winners \u2013 seniors Jenna Diehl and Brian Gaydos, who put forth a partnership and co-packaging plan \u2013 walked away with prize money of $3,500. Second place received $1,000; third place took $500.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe winning team really knocked our socks off,\u201d said Andrew Blate \u201904, who sponsors the competition along with business partner Craig Schneibolk of the D.C.-area remodeling company Beautiful Home Services. \u201cThey gave a very well-thought-out presentation, in a professional and detailed manner, and answered our questions thoroughly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each year, UMW business professors select a scenario \u2013 last year\u2019s involved a California-based street-sweeping company \u2013 and ask students to research the case, identify potential problems, come up with possible solutions and share their findings via video. Top performers become finalists should they choose to compete in front of a panel of judges, with 15 minutes to deliver their projects and five minutes for questions and answers.<\/p>\n

Tossing around terms like total asset turnover, profit margin and return on investment, they shared market analyses and ideas for continued success and expansion. Teams took unique approaches, choosing to double down on niche markets, form partnerships with dairy farmers, branch out to foreign markets and get creative with byproducts like fruit pulp and peels.<\/p>\n

\u201cTalent is being produced in front of us right now,\u201d said Blate, who started an endowed fund with Schneibolk for the annual award money. Joined by fellow judges Mary Washington alumni Linda Blakemore \u201984 and Lou Marmo \u201994, they peppered the contestants with questions in Shark Tank<\/em>-style \u2026 but nicer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWho\u2019s your competition?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat about shipping costs?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDid you look into Japan\u2019s import laws?\u201d<\/p>\n

Blate sees the endeavor as a bit of tough love.<\/p>\n

But, he said, \u201cIn my heart of hearts, I hope that one day I\u2019ll read in the Wall Street Journal<\/em> that one of these teams has started the next big thing that does great things for people. The relationships and the seeds for that are planted here today.\u201d<\/p>\n
