The contest is designed to give MBA students exposure to mergers and acquisitions, private equity, investment banking and financial advisory work.
Second and third place went to teams from Yale University and Sacred Heart University, respectively, after Yale won the first two ACG Cups in 2010 and 2011. Sharing a $1,000 prize was this year’s UConn team of Vivek Goel, Isaac Park, Archit Patel, Tom Wang and Dawei Zheng.
Separately, ACG Connecticut Chairman Ramsey Goodrich was one of five recipients of a meritorious service award to be bestowed at ACG”™s InterGrowth conference in Dallas later this month. Goodrich is managing director and partner at Carter Morse & Mathias, a boutique investment bank in Westport.
