Internship Case Competition
Interns at Pella Corporation were placed onto teams of 5-7 interns to work together on a case competition project. The prompt was to create a new product, service, or business practice that would have a positive impact on the business. We met with our teams weekly to conduct research, brainstorm, develop ideas, and eventually come up with a business plan and 20 minute presentation to a panel of judges from various leadership roles within the business.
My team presented a new type of dye sublimation coating for Pella's Impervia® fiberglass windows and doors that would allow for a wood grain look on strong, maintenance-free fiberglass products. We were awarded 1st place in the final awards ceremony out of a total of 11 teams.
