The countdown is on! Next week, we'll welcome 137 exceptional students and 26 faculty advisors from 20 universities to Cincinnati for The Econ Games 2025, proudly hosted by Haile College of Business with our Data Sponsor 3CDC.
Organizing this event has been both exhilarating and challenging. I'm grateful for our outstanding team working tirelessly behind the scenes. Darshak and I couldn't bring this vision to life without event planning mastermind Amberly Nutini. Jeni Al Bahrani has been instrumental in making many connections and has supported The Econ Games since its inception.
The Econ Games has grown into something far greater than Darshak, and I could manage alone. It takes a team of individuals committed to innovative business and economic education. Thanks to all who made this happen this year.
If you're in the Cincinnati area, I invite you to witness our students' innovative final projects at Memorial Hall on April 4th at 4 p.m. for the championship round of judging.

Students will receive Queen City Cards to explore Cincinnati's vibrant local dining scene
The Connector will provide convenient transportation around the city

A career expo kicks off the program, connecting students with exciting professional opportunities

The Econ Games Experience:
The Econ Games offers students invaluable opportunities to network with peers, apply classroom concepts to real-world challenges, and develop essential workforce skills that employers seek.
As we celebrate our 7th annual Econ Games, this passion project continues to embody what Darshak and I deeply believe: transformative experiences enhance students' sense of belonging and help them recognize the relevance of what we teach in higher education.
I can hardly wait to meet all our participating students, their dedicated faculty advisors, and the generous sponsors who have made The Econ Games 2025 possible.
See you in Cincinnati for The Econ Games 2025 with Data Sponsor 3CDC!
Sincerely,
Dr. A
and Dr. Darshak Patel
Excited!!
I cannot wait!
