2021 P&G Virtual Undergraduate Case Competition
The world of consumer retail is changing constantly. As such, consumer-packaged goods companies have had to demonstrate extreme agility, creativity, and superior strategic-thinking. Procter & Gamble (P&G) has had to face several challenges and barriers across its numerous brands (i.e. Tide, Gillette, Secret, Vicks, Pampers, Always). These challenges have resulted in incredible innovations and strategies that have resulted in both consumer and commercial wins!

P&G is launching our first-ever virtual undergraduate case competition at Boston University’s Questrom School of Business. We invite you  to tackle a real-world example of one of the challenges that we face as we grow our business and most importantly improve the lives of our consumers.

If you have a passion to win and want to tackle this challenge, continuing below to learn more about the competition and sign-up.

DEADLINE TO APPLY: Friday, April 2nd
