The Global PESTLE Challenge was an initiative of International Business students under the aegis of the International Relations Club (IRC) of the PGDM–IB Department, JIMS Rohini, organized on 13th September 2025.
A total of nine teams were shortlisted based on their concept note submissions, each team representing a different country through the PESTLE framework. The selected countries were: Brazil, Switzerland, China, India, Saudi Arabia, Maldives, France, Japan, and Germany. Students showcased their research and analysis by creating visual representations of their respective nations’ PESTLE environments in the form of thematic stalls.
The Visual Display Round allowed participants to present immersive setups highlighting national colors, cultural elements, landmarks, cuisines, technological strengths, and socio-economic dynamics of their chosen country.
After careful evaluation by the judging panel, the team representing Brazil was declared the 1st Place Winner, followed by India securing the 2nd Position. Both teams were applauded for their outstanding creativity, in-depth analysis, and impactful presentations, and were awarded Certificates and Cash Prizes in recognition of their achievement.
