The Award
The European Best Pricing Master Thesis Award is rewarded yearly to the writer of the best final paper that addresses pricing as the main subject. The winning student will receive a cash reward, an ePP Pricing Training of choice, and a Bundle of Pricing Books. The second prize and third prize winner will receive a 12-month FREE ePP participation.

Why organising the Pricing Award? The need for pricing expertise will increase significantly in the coming years. Knowledge development of the importance and impact of pricing, pricing strategies, pricing instruments and tactics is key for organizations aiming at sustainable growth and value capturing.

In Europe experienced pricing professionals are still scarce. Only few organizations have pricing managers today. As the need for more talent will seriously increase, students who focus on the pricing subject might be one step ahead of others at the moment they enter the career market.

The importance of pricing knowledge development at student level - and herewith stimulate a new generation of professionals starting their careers with fundamental and applied knowledge in the pricing area - is the driver behind the European Best Pricing Master Thesis Award.

For whom?
Any student graduating from a European University or Business School at Master level may enter the competition.
