Hey, my name is Sebastian, and I am the Executive Board Member for Participant Relations. As the Head of Participant Relations, I am not only responsible for the acquisition of participants but also for their preparation and their well-being during the event. I am excited to give ambitious and like-minded students from all over Europe the chance to meet and make connections which will hopefully last beyond the event itself.

I'm Catharina and I'm the Executive Board Member responsible for everything regarding Communications, including the management of the Social Media Channels, the Website and the Corporate Design of the event in general. I'm really glad to be part of such a great team organizing a unique competition between European business schools and I'm already excited to meet you all in fall in Mannheim and to share a lot of events with you!

Hello everyone! I'm Nick, and as a member of the Executive Board, I have the exciting responsibility of overseeing corporate relations at AKB Business Champions. It's a privilege to connect and collaborate with leading companies, fostering partnerships that provide meaningful interactions between Europe's top students and our partners. What truly sets AKB Business Champions apart is its unique and collaborative spirit, transforming it into an event that goes beyond traditional case competitions. I can't wait to meet each and every one of you this fall and make this year's event the best one yet!
