Q & A

NESU Conference is a seven days long conference that gathers 60 business students and several companies all together to challenge themselves with a chosen theme. This autumn the theme will be “PLANET & PROFIT: PARTNERS IN PROGRESS”.

 

The week consists of four business cases providing solutions for real companies’ specific issues. As a counterbalance to the day program there is of course evening program to network with new and old friends. The week climaxes with a grand gala on Saturday and a farewell gathering on Sunday.

Our organizing team is so excited to have your company as our partner! This page is directed at participants, so be sure to check our PARTNERS page for more information about collaboration.

You can participate if you are a student at your local business school. If there is a NESU organization in your city of studies, you are automatically accepted as a member of NESU. You don’t need to have a NESU organization to participate.

 

Unfortunately, students from Turku School of Economics, Pori campus can only participate if there are places available after applicants from other cities are chosen.

There are plenty of reasons why you should participate, but here are few for starters:

1. The day programs will enable your to challenge your know-how and work together with business students with different majors. Besides, you get to network with the company representatives and wow them with your skills!

2. The week is littered with fun activities! We promise you the week will be worth every penny, and you will have several new friends all around the different NESU countries.

3. The week is like no other event you’ve experienced before! You get to live in a Semma-bubble and enjoy the atmosphere 24/7. You will spend most of your time with new and old friends, which any other event for business students doesn’t enable.

The application period starts on the 2nd of  September and ends on the 22nd of September 2024. You have three weeks to write your best motivation letter to introduce yourself and show why you should be chosen to join the conference as a participant.

In the motivation letter, you should describe why you want to join the conference. We would also love to hear what makes you the most excited about the theme and week!
