What would the year 2120 look like?
The world is green, sustainable and happiness is at an all-time high. Our hero is enjoying some fresh air and surfing the web for the incredible public information this time period has to offer, when he suddenly trips over a rock.
Our hero is surprised to find that the rock is actually part of a time capsule which reads the following:
... “From TEDxUniversityofGlasgow, 1st March 2020”.
The time capsule is filled with letters, objects from the past, names and what seem to be titles for TED talks...
Introducing this year's edition of the TEDxUniversityofGlasgow conference, "Dear World"!
What will these elements reveal?

On the 1st of February, the GU Consulting Society was invited to the University of Edinburgh to compete in the Inaugural Scottish Business Case Competition! üî•üî•
Officially representing the University of Glasgow, 4 of our members took the leap and formed a team to take on the likes of Edinburgh University, Aberdeen University, and St. Andrews University.
Codename: Team BraveHearts üè¥ÛÝÅßÛÝÅ¢ÛÝÅ≥ÛÝÅ£ÛÝÅ¥ÛÝÅøüè¥ÛÝÅßÛÝÅ¢Û ÝÅ≥ÛÝÅ£ÛÝÅ¥ÛÝÅø
... Having 4 hours to solve a case (and no internet to get more research!), they prepared a 10 minute presentation with a 10 minute Q&A. They did extremely well on the day and we are incredibly proud to have them on our side for future competitions!
If you are looking to also compete at a Business Case Competition make sure to get in touch at guconsultingsociety@gmail.com or get in touch on our FB page. Stay tuned for more competitions!
Here are a few photos they took at the competition:
