High School Business Language Competition

The Marriott School of Management at BYU is proud to partner with Nutraceutical Corporation and the BYU Center for the Study of Europe to present the 3rd High School Business Language Competition. The BYU High School Business Language Competition provides an opportunity for high school students to apply their business and language skills outside their school environment. This competition will also provide students with an opportunity to develop their presentation skills in Spanish and utilize their creative skills while developing a business plan.

The competition will consist of two parts: a business plan development and a business plan presentation.

Business Plan Development: Each team will be given a Nutraceutical Corporation product to market to the Utah Hispanic community. They will be given two months to learn about the product, learn about the Hispanic market, and develop a business plan to market the product to the Hispanic community.

Business Plan Presentation: Students will present their business plans to a jury of native Spanish speakers during a one-day event at the Marriott School of Management at BYU.
