The Emerald/AABS case study competition was launched in 2011 by the Emerald and the Association of African Business Schools. The competition aims at encouraging and promoting the development of high-quality teaching case materials derived from real life situations in Africa. Winners are usually selected by a judging panel who deliberate over each case study, by analysing both the case and teaching note before giving an overall manuscript score.
To commemorate his incredible win, Dr Uzo has been invited to Cairo, Egypt, for the upcoming AABS conference where he will be awarded his certificate. Dr Uzo’s case study will also be published in a forthcoming release of Emerald’s Emerging Sources Case Collection.
