Cambridge MBA students offer to apply their professional experience, MBA learning and networks to undertake short-term, pro-bono consulting projects for UK businesses, to help withstand the current period and plan for the future.
Following the more than 25 pro-bono consulting projects completed as part of the Cambridge Judge Against COVID-19 initiative in the first lockdown in 2020, piloted by MBA 2019 students Srishti Warman and Matt Lisonbee, current Cambridge MBA students are looking to continue this initiative to help businesses in need cope with the current economic restrictions brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
