Students around the world invest considerable time and energy to prepare for and compete in case competitions.

We extend previous suggestions about adapting case-based teaching to better support EBMgt (e.g., ; ), recognizing that such a shift requires a fundamental change to how many business educators use cases . We believe an EBMgt-focused case competition can promote greater awareness and use of the EBMgt concept, benefiting students and other stakeholders.
