HKU Business School collaborates with NWS Holdings Limited to organise the HKU-NWS Joint University Case Competition 2021 in April 2021. This competition is the annual signature event of HKU International Case Society (HICS), a student-run organisation supported by the School which aims to provide a platform for students to hone their case cracking, analytical and presentation skills.

The competition comprises preliminary round and final round. Before the competition, an industry talk will be offered by NWS where students will be able to gain better insight into specific business of NWS as well as the industry before case cracking. Participating students will also have the opportunity to chat with senior corporate management from NWS who will be on the judging panel at the final round presentation. Apart from HICS members from HKU Business School, undergraduate students from City University of Hong Kong, The Chinese University of Hong Kong and The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology will take part in this competition to compete for the Championship.
