Fox international M.B.A. students Rodney Johnson, Celeste Oglesby and Sally Shuai explain the consulting work they completed for Pharmalink to a visitor at this year’s Temple Global Innovation & Entrepreneurship Expo.

To complete their capstone course for the I.M.B.A., the Enterprise in Management Consulting Practicum, the team of Fox School students developed strategies to meet the marketing goals of Pharmalink, a regulatory affairs consulting company based in Berkshire, England.

The student team was one of 16 to present work they did for companies around the globe at this year’s expo, held May 2.

The event’s keynote speaker, former CFO of MCI and IBM Douglas Maine, emphasized the purpose of the consulting practicum.

“MCI’s success was due to the fact that it never ceased to be entrepreneurial in its culture,” said Maine, director of Rockwood Holdings and Alliant Techsystems.

“In fact, if I had to cite one trait that is most important to the success of all companies, it is entrepreneurship.”
