GBSN Beyond’s Social Logistics Challenge is a unique team-based virtual competition for business students to truly interact with other disciplines and use one another’s expertise to create business solutions with a focus on social responsibility and awareness. Through this Challenge, students will learn that social logistics aims to introduce a social (human) factor in the systems and to apply logistic principles and methods in solving the problems of society. This year students will be asked to consider the intersection of people and technology in their problem statements and solution plans.
