14th Annual Competition: March 2019
This year's case study had 14 teams assessing technology in the construction industry, before presenting to a panel of judges in Edmonton. The team had to think "outside the box" and they presented a completely different recommendation than all the other teams. We are proud of their efforts and their commitment to the team, their coaches, and the CSB.
