Dollars and donuts in Nipissing Business Challenge Bowl

Nipissing recently welcomed more than 50 local high school business students to contend for the title of Champion in the Nipissing Business Challenge Bowl (NBC) and $500 in Nipissing University tuition credits to continue business education locally.
Students compete by solving business case studies and presenting their findings to a panel of judges.

The case in this year’s NBC competition involved Robin's Donuts vs. Tim Hortons donuts. Students were given notes from the manager and part owner of Robin's Donuts and challenged with media advertising, special promotions, public relations and personal selling.

Local schools, including Chippewa Secondary School, St. Joseph Scollard Hall, West Ferris Secondary School and Widdifield Secondary School participated in the all-day event.

This year’s winners, Liam Rivet and Kalen Bennett from Chippewa, earned the title for the second consecutive year.
