Credit Suisse is proud to be the founding sponsor of an independent, academic, thought leadership platform called Project Firefly, which has launched today with an Emerging Leaders Essay Competition.
Students can submit essays through Project Firefly (http://www.project-firefly.com/) on financial/economic topics. After a review by a board of 15 professors from across the globe, the best essays will be published on the website. Submissions are open to any undergraduates, masters or PhD students globally and essays will undergo a blind assessment to ensure the best content is recognized.
The submission deadline is February 19, 2012. Three winners will be invited to the Credit Suisse Asian Investment Conference in Hong Kong on March 19-23, 2012. (All expenses paid.) Further details on the conference can be accessed at: https://www.credit-suisse.com/conferences/aic/2012/en/
