Equity Competition

The SJSU Equity Competition is organized by MeriWest Credit Union, the Center for Banking and Financial Services at SJSU and the Silicon Valley Aggressive Growth Fund at SJSU. The Equity Competition is a (non-credit) program that exposes participants to equity research, valuation and decision making (buy, hold or sell). 

The equity competition participants are mentored for up to 2 hours by investments and valuation professionals, with a final team-competition where the best performing team is awarded a trophy and scholarships. In addition to the technical skills acquired in the program, participants learn about careers in investments through valuable networking opportunities. All participants will receive a certificate.
