Fall 2017 Capstone Cup Results

Team Aksarben Consulting wins the Capstone Cup, an award-winning undergraduate student competition unique to the UNO College of Business Administration.

First Place

Team Aksarben Consulting wins the fall 2017 Capstone Cup.

Eighteen seniors enrolled at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) College of Business Administration (CBA) faced off in the final round of the Capstone Cup on Dec. 1.

The finalists advanced after two previous rounds of competition, which started with more than 160 students this September.

During this tournament-style competition, students work in teams and have 10 days to digest a complex business situation, develop a creative and practical solution, and build a presentation with their analysis and recommendations. Teams present to a panel of judges, including CBA faculty, alumni and local business executives.

Born at CBA, the Capstone Cup prepares students for career success as well as engages alumni and Omaha’s business community.

Thanks to our 2017–2018 Capstone Cup sponsors: TD Ameritrade, First Data, Union Pacific and Jet Linx.
