Jean-Michel Moriniere is a judge in the Dubai 2012 Regional Final (24-25 february 2012).

The 2012 Hult Global Case Challenge was themed around: Global Poverty. Under the Global Poverty.

Three subject social challenge areas will be tackled through respective individual tracks of competition across five cities.

The aim of the 2012 Hult Global Case Challenge was to drive solutions around those key social areas, which Hult believed has the greatest net impact on global poverty.

Through collectively overcoming social challenges in education, energy and housing, it is our belief that we are undertaking global poverty on a grass-roots level. Through what has become the world’s largest crowd-sourcing initiative dedicated to solving global social challenges, the Hult Global Case Challenge seeks ideas and solutions from the world’s best and brightest future business leaders that will cause a step-change in the vicious global poverty cycle.

The Hult Global Case Challenge was held simultaneously around the world through a multi-tiered, international competition platform. Through a call for applicants, teams have been selected to compete at one of five international cities: Boston, San Francisco, London, Dubai and Shanghai. 

The winning team went to an all-expense paid global final in New York City, where each team was given the opportunity to present its solution to a world-class panel of executive judges including Bill Clinton.
