Congratulations to Griffith University’s 3rd Step Enterprises for making it to the semi-final of the The mai Bangkok Business Challenge @ Sasin 2015.
The mai Bangkok Business Challenge was created in 2002 as an independent competition to foster entrepreneurship amongst MBA graduates in the Asian region. The semi-finalists are five Gold Coast-based MBA students, Andrew Zaniewski, Prasanna Sivasubramaniam Shanmuganathan, Joshua Salkeld, Nathan Pugliese and Matthew Kelly. Originally formed as an entry into the inaugural G20 Global Business Challenge, their third place success in that competition encouraged them to develop 3rd Step Enterprises further.
