Award Certificate and Trophy Cup

Team consists of five members, including team leader Xu Hao (MBA 2012I). “The platform built by Tsinghua MBA Programs has offered an advanced starting point for our program, and did play a significant role to promote and upgrade “Green China” in the negotiation process with interested investors. Actually, two of our team members were identified through the official SNS group of ‘Prepare for Tsinghua 2012’,”said Xu Hao. Not only that all of them have plenty years of working experience, but also that they come from different fields such as computer, finance, management, engineering and biological research, making the team highly professional and diversified. “It hasn’t always been easy. During the 6-month-period starting from the registration in March to September, when we were told that our program was shortlisted, the greatest difficulty should be that, members in U.S. and China needed to communicate through multiple teleconferences, to make rounds and rounds of revision. It was a great challenge for us in positioning and coordinating. Fortunately, we managed to lead the team to the right track and the result was more than satisfactory.” (Student Coordinator OU ZiCheng)
