We're offering you the chance to represent the University of Sunderland for marketing competitions.
The Pitch is an international competition hosted by The Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM). In teams of two or three, undergraduate students are tasked with putting their skills to the test tackling a real-life challenge set by a leading brand.
If students make it through to the live pitch final, there's the opportunity to present their ideas to a panel of industry experts and a chance to be crowned the winners of The Pitch 2022 and CIM’s Marketers of the Future.
Working on this will include developing a consumer-facing creative campaign, taking into account earned, owned and paid media within a £200,000 budget.
You can find out more on The Chartered Institute of Marketing's website.

The Greggs University Challenge is an annual North East university competition aimed at finding the next Greggs marketing startegy.
Using your own research, as well as the information provided in the Greggs deck, we invite you to create a product and an accompanying cross-channel marketing campaign, that meets this growing demand for ‘healthier options’. With the evening becoming the largest FOTG daypart in the past year, and therefore providing a huge area of opportunity into which the business can expand, your product must sit within Greggs’ evening offering.
