In the Czech Republic and Slovakia the team members that win the national final of the competition will have the opportunity to attend an MBA. «We are talking here about the MBA program of the City University of Seattle, that can be studied in the business schools in Prague and Bratislava. It is a reward that develops knowledge», says Petr Budinsky, responsible for organizing the GMC competition in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Victoria Maherianaki, organizer of the Global Management Challenge in Greece, says: “the scholarship is offered by the Athens University of Economics and Business, for the frequency of its International MBA program. This program has prerequisites and it is the University which makes the selection of members from teams that reach the national final “.
