Did You Know?
The MBA Team Consulting Program at Rutgers Business School–Newark and New Brunswick brings the knowledge and experience of MBA students to bear on challenges identified by clients. The win-win program enables students to integrate and apply their classroom learning while clients receive insightful analysis and valuable recommendations. The rural Warren County community of Belvidere was in need of just that kind of service when the town’s economic development committee began seeking ways to attract new businesses to the downtown. The MBA team helped Belvidere to identify what kinds of businesses would prosper and made recommendations on incentives for prospective businesses.
