CaseIT is an annual Undergraduate Business Case Competition with a strong IT focus designed to find the best and brightest in strategic IT case analysis. It is the committee's hope to provide students, who are studying various areas of IT and business, an avenue to showcase their skills in areas such as problem solving, team work, and critical thinking, to a panel of industry professionals. In so doing, they will be able to strengthen their confidence, their resume, and their business network.

The CaseIT executive committee consists of a group of students who are dedicated and highly motivated to bringing new opportunities and experiences to their fellow university students. The committee has recognized that today's competitive job market requires students to have an edge in order to be successful. CaseIT provides students with that edge in that the goal of the competition is to provide students with the experience needed to produce that extra edge, and to expand CaseIT's influence from coast to coast. One day, the committee hopes that all MIS students throughout North America, or maybe even the world, will be provided with the chance to experience CaseIT.

History

CaseIT was founded by Paul Cyr and Zephaniah Wong. Both were students at Simon Fraser University and members of the Management Information Systems Association (MISA), which is an MIS student-organized club. They held the first CaseIT case competition in 2004, where it was organized as an intra-university competition between SFU teams. In 2005, under the leadership of Jenny Chao, the competition expanded to include other universities and colleges in western Canada. This expansion achieved so much success that by CaseIT 2006, another expansion was underway. Headed by Andrew Kumar, CaseIT 2006 encompassed universities across Canada, from Simon Fraser University to Queen's University. This year's CaseIT (CaseIT 2007) is headed by Somnath Suresh, a man with a vision to expand CaseIT even further to include universities in the United States.
