The 2nd Fudan MBA iLab Business Challenge Officially Launched

After months of preparation, the 2nd Fudan MBA iLab Business Challenge officially kicked off in Shanghai Jahwa Technological and Innovation Center on July 22, 2022. The Fudan iLab Business Challenge will cooperate with Shanghai Jahwa and focus on its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) strategy.

 

Professor Zheng Ming, Deputy Dean of the Fudan University School of Management (FDSM), pointed out that cultivating management talents with ESG awareness has long been the goal of the Fudan MBA program.
