The month of May is dedicated to the Mentor + Team introductions. Focus on scheduling your meetings and building these relationships. Every team is required to meet with their mentors at least once a month.

This competition is intended to create a collaborative and supportive learning environment for the teams. Students will be exposed to many industry and academic leaders in the course of the competition. Additionally, student teams will help build a supportive community for continuing collaborations. The mentor sessions will be arranged by the team and their mentors. The mentor/team matchup will be determined based on case solution and industry perspective.  Teams are encouraged to take advantage of these mentoring opportunities.
