The case presentation marks a significant highlight of our Co-op@CUHK Asia field trip in Indonesia, showcasing students’ analytical skills and creativity in providing recommendations to our case partner, PT Indonesia Ferry Properti (IFPRO).
Teams from the Interdisciplinary Data Analytics & X Double Major (IDADM) Programme (Cohort 1) unveiled innovative ideas, tackling real-life challenges with fresh inspiration. Some proposed bold logistics solutions, others reimagined sustainable ecosystems, while a few shared pragmatic community development and global economy strategies. Their enthusiasm and originality lit up the room, captivating the judges and audience with creative insights.
Not only did the case study provide a valuable opportunity for students to gain insights into how cultural differences could impact data collection and provide data-driven recommendations, but also allowed IDADM students to extend their personal network as the judging panel included senior management from IFPRO and some government officials in Indonesia.
The closing dinner cum award presentation perfectly wrapped up the day. Below is the case presentation results:
Champion: Chris Wong and team
