What is Harvard Crimson Business Competition (HCBC)

Hosted by The Harvard Crimson, the student newspaper at Harvard University, the Harvard Crimson Business Competition gives students the opportunity to showcase their innovation and business skills at the global competition level.

02

The Competition

The competition is divided into the Preliminary Round which can be participated online, and the Global Championship Round which is hosted in Cambridge, MA, at Harvard University.

Those students selected for the Championship Round will travel to Harvard and get the opportunity to gain mentorship from Harvard students as they present and compete with their innovations.

Why Join the Competition

In the age of AI, business knowledge and management skills become differentiators in career development. The ability to define a problem, understand customers, and design a viable solution becomes even more important, because those are the human decisions AI is supporting rather than replacing.

To be trained to join HCBC and compete on the global stage multiplies these advantages. It gives students a safe, structured environment to practice, where they learn to turn vague ideas into concrete business models, pitch under time pressure, and receive feedback from experience executives.
