We already have a winning duo from Business Day. Will their colleagues ,Ilja Graulich (Companies + Markets Editor) and Tim Cohen (Associate Editor) meet their match this week when they come up against Max Gebhardt (Managing Editor) and Quentin Wray (Economics Editor) of Business Report? There are only two more places left in the Editors Team , which of these business dailies will go through to the final event at the Gordon Institute of Business Science on Thursday, 9th May?
At this grand event, they’ll get to challenge another 15 teams from sectors listed on the JSE Securities Exchange. And who better to put their minds to the test than the CEO of the JSE Securities Exchange, Russell Loubser.
The good news for DStv viewers is that they will have a final opportunity to prove that they too have a Mind For Business! Some high-end technology , developed especially for the GIBS Business Masterminds TV Series on Summit, makes it possible for viewers to share in the excitement by testing their own business knowledge whilst the contestants get hot under the collar in the studio.
