About Ivey Business School and the Country Initiative. Greetings from the Ivey Business School at Western University, Canada! As you may know, Ivey consistently ranks among the top international business schools in the world.

The seminar founder and former Director of Ivey Publishing will participate in this event. Ivey Publishing distributes a collection of more than 8,500 business case studies, technical notes and articles from the Ivey Business Journal. It is the second-largest producer and distributor of decision-oriented teaching cases in the world, after Harvard Business School. Its cases are used in universities in more than 150 countries.

Ivey ranks second in the world (after Harvard) in the number of business cases in its collection.

Although Ivey Publishing normally sells cases at about USD 4.50 per student copy, they are provided free of charge to registered university faculty in countries where GDP per capita is below USD 2,000. This currently includes 46 countries.

Unique Opportunity for TSUC Faculty

Full-time faculty at TSUC may register at Ivey Publishing, select cases they want to use in teaching, and access them without any cost. More than 2,000 faculty members worldwide are already registered.

Important conditions:

• Cases are for domestic educational use only and cannot be redistributed electronically.

• Teaching notes will also be available to registered instructors but must never be shared with students or published electronically. We invite all faculty members, researchers, and students to join this significant international seminar.
