Abstract

Business to business (B2B) sales professionals are represented in all industries and service sectors. However, there are all too few possibilities for South-East Asian higher education students to apply for B2B sales degree programmes or courses. In the European Commission co-funded South-East Asian Sales Competition SEASAC project, new courses are introduced, and special attention is addressed in assessing students’ learning outcomes and in accelerating university-business cooperation. Core aims are realized by establishing local and international sales competitions. In this paper, authors from Finland, Indonesia and Thailand present first impressions and effects of SEASAC activities in South-East Asia.
