Hi everyone! My name is Anna and I have the honor of leading the organization of this year’s competition. Business Champions provides the unique opportunity to not only compete, but also connect with like-minded students from all over Europe, as well as with highly insightful corporate partners. I have personally greatly enjoyed being part of similar events in the past and together with this wonderful team, I hope to provide all participants with a unique and enriching experience. Hope to see you soon!

I'm Julius, and I am the Vice Head of AKB Business Champions as well as the Head of Participant Relations. I am responsible for acquiring participants and ensuring their preparation and well-being during the event. Having been part of last year's competition, I experienced its unique atmosphere firsthand. My goal is to once again give ambitious students from all over Europe the opportunity to meet in Mannheim next year and form lasting connections. I’m looking forward to getting to know each of you in advance and spending three unforgettable days together in October!

Hey, my name is Katerina, and as Head of Corporate Relations, I oversee the strong partnerships for this exciting case competition. It is truly inspiring to witness the synergy between Corporate Partners and motivated, talented students, fostering connections that extend well beyond the event itself. With its blend of professional development, networking opportunities, and social engagements, AKB Business Champions offers an unparalleled experience. I’m already excited to meet you all in Mannheim this fall, and trust me, this is the highlight event of the year you absolutely don’t want to miss!
