The two teams, composed of students from the Departments of International Business, Business Administration, Finance, Digital Media, and the Graduate Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, showcased their interdisciplinary collaboration capabilities. They received comprehensive and rigorous training before the competition. Assistant Professor Ya-Ching Chan from the Department of Business Administration and Professor Chung-Kai Huang from the Department of International Business were respectively responsible for planning and guidance in business management simulation training and English presentation skills. Through this dual-track approach of interdisciplinary learning and international competence development, the students demonstrated outstanding teamwork and international communication skills during the competition, fully reflecting the university's remarkable achievements in cultivating international talent.
