Emerging Markets Institute

Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management

Cornell University

2014-15 Annual Report

Introduction:

After four years of operation, the Emerging Markets Institute is continuing to expand its reach, with more

students, visiting scholars, publications and consulting projects. We fielded the winning team in a global

case competition. We are working more with partner organizations within Cornell University and other

universities. We published two books, and our faculty won international recognitions. We continue to

attract more talent to Johnson, and our alumni are working in high profile roles from Ethiopia to Jakarta

to New York. We are truly realizing the original vision behind the establishment of the institute: to build

a highly regarded academic program for the study of emerging markets and provide a private forum for

lively exchange among corporate leaders from emerging and developed markets and leading researchers.

We are also finding new ways to communicate. We launched our first edition of a newsletter, and

established pages on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. We also created new marketing materials to

introduce companies to our program. The website continues to carry the bulk of our information, and we

are constantly looking for new ways to improve it.

The Institute would like to thank its partners, sponsors and donors which made this year possible.

Specifically, KPMG; BRICLab of the Center on Global Economic Governance, Columbia University;

Center for Emerging Markets, Northeastern University; Nell Cady-Kruse, BS ’84, MBA ’85; Roberto

Canizares, BS ’71, MBA ’74; Peter Luerrsen, MBA ’87; James Morgan, BS ’60, MBA ’63; Bob Staley

BME ’58, MBA ’59; and Al Suter, BME ’58, MBA’59. We would also like to acknowledge many gifts

from our Emerging Markets Fellows alumni.

Education:

The Institute recruited 23 students from the first year class in the Johnson Ithaca Residential Program into

our Emerging Markets Fellows program, and will be adding more from the one year Ithaca MBA program

during the summer of 2015. The fellows undertake academic coursework, study trips and consulting

projects focused on the Emerging Markets. We also graduated 31 students from the program, our highest

number since the establishment of the institute. The fellows and others contributed 33 articles to the EMI

website during the academic year, which have proven to be significant drivers for web traffic. Topics

have ranged from pyschometrics as a tool to reduce default risk to how the decline in oil prices is

affecting emerging markets differently.

We have plans to expand the fellows program in the next fiscal year to include students from our two

Executive MBA programs (Metro New York and Americas), plus the Cornell Tech MBA students.

EMI Fellows and Advisory Board Members celebrate their graduation at the home of Executive Director

Richard J. Coyle, May 22, 2015.

The Institute had a very robust array of consulting projects in the International Consulting Practicum,

which is taught jointly with the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore. Students travelled to Chile,

Australia, and Colombia to deliver their final presentations, while others were handled via

videoconference. Projects this year included:

An Indian market expansion strategy for an international manufacturer of veterinarian products

A Latin American entry plan for an Indian manufacturer of chemicals for the mining industry

A detailed assessment of customers visiting a high end chain of hotel properties in Chile

A social media plan to revitalize a consumer good product line for a Mexican parent corporation

of a U.S. snack food manufacturer

A Latin American market entry plan for a manufacturer of safety equipment for the

telecommunications industry

A strategic plan for a UK designer of data visualization software

A plan to launch a private equity firm in Latin America

A business model for making data driven investments in innovation for an Australian bank

A plan for benchmarking financial performance for a Mexican distributor of consumer goods.

Study Trips:

Johnson organized seven study trips during the 2014-15 academic year, involving 209 students.

Destinations were Japan/Korea, Western Europe, South Africa, Israel, UAE, and Columbia

The Institute was directly involved in the study trips to India, South Africa and Colombia. During the

Colombia trip, students were assigned projects to work with local companies. One project eventually

evolved into a summer internship for an EMI Fellow with a family-owned distributor of motor oils and

lubricants.

Research:

Our faculty continued with a robust effort of research and publication during the academic year. The

Emerging Markets Institute was a lead organizer in the Fourth Symposium on Emerging Financial

Markets: China and Beyond, held on May 1 and 2, 2015 in New York City. The event featured a paper

by Professor Warren Bailey and a panel discussion on shadow banking, moderated by Professor Andrew

Karolyi. Additional emerging market-related publications include:

mai Bangkok Business Challenge @ Sasin

Over the past four years, the Emerging Markets Institute has sent three teams to participate in the mai

Bangkok Business Challenge at Sasin Graduate Institute of Business Administration of Chulalongkorn

University. Sasin was founded in 1982 as a joint venture of Chulalongkorn University, Kellogg School of

Management at Northwestern University and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. This

year, 48 teams from 18 countries submitted business plans for entrepreneurial ventures. 16 were selected

to compete in Bangkok. The Emerging Markets Institute team proposed a company called UMA

Bioseeds, which utilized supercharged enzymes to eliminate disease and pathogens from crop seeds, thus

improving agricultural yields. After three days of pitching in several rounds before a panel of judges,

UMA Bioseeds was declared the winner! More information about the win can be found at
