Business Design Challenge

About

The Business Design Challenge presents an innovative approach to addressing business problems by involving skilled and eager graduate students with diverse expertise. This program offers businesses fresh perspectives by considering users, skills, and market trends from a different angle.

Our journey so far

Over the past two years we have worked with two very different but fascinating businesses which included GALAXIA Mission Systems and RisingTide BioAcoustics. Both businesses brought forth specific challenges within their respective industries and had various solutions presented to them. Overall, we have engaged 30 students in the program and each business was provided with about 4–6 unique markets and directions of growth to take away and apply to their existing models.

Our Model

The model is structured to deliver an applied learning experience over the Fall term (September – December) and create a pipeline for more industry-academia collaborations to share the immense wealth of knowledge and resources that academia has to offer to the participating organizations. This program targets businesses in a field with constant product or process innovation that are seeking to grow and venture into new fields.
