Topline Consulting, a China based strategic communications firm which opened their first international operation in Gurgaon and subsequently in the short span of four months opened offices in Mumbai and Bangalore, launched their flagship case competition - Annual Biz Challenge 2018 in association with MICA’s annual marketing festival - MICANVAS. 

Mr Michael Song, Chairman and Founder of Topline Consulting Group said: “Topline is a young company which is for the youth, by the youth, of the youth. It believes that the youth have immense untapped potential, which needs to be channelled in the right direction.” Mr. Song also added that it was for strategic reasons that they selected a global brand for their first case study competition as the brand had recently entered India in a major way. The jury in the competition specifically looked for the nuances attached to the brand as perceived by young people in India. 

The Annual Biz Challenge 2018 went live on the Dare2Compete platform, which hosts competitions for Management Schools across India. The case study competition was a chance for management students to tackle a live case of a global smart device brand in India.

MICA is also internationalizing rapidly and is building partnerships throughout the world. We are especially pleased to be partnering with Topline as a way of engaging with the rapidly developing and modernising economy of China.”
