This spring, Cambridge MBA students participated in a transformative Global Consulting Project (GCP) in Dubai with the Dubai Future District Fund (DFDF). The project was an exceptional academic and cultural journey, focusing on developing investment theses in the Future of Finance, Work, and Healthcare for the MENA region.
Collaborating with a Master of Finance alumnus at DFDF, the students applied their Cambridge education to real-world financial challenges. Their time in Dubai included exploring the city’s iconic skyscrapers and vibrant souks, and engaging with local customs during the Eid celebrations.
Despite a brief interruption by a severe storm, the students demonstrated resilience, quickly resuming their work and successfully presenting their findings to the DFDF CEO. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with DFDF expressing interest in continuing this partnership for future projects.
This experience highlights the practical, global learning approach of Cambridge Judge Business School, equipping its graduates to excel in diverse environments and paving the way for future students to engage in similarly impactful projects.
