The FSF Scholarship Committee is pleased to share the 2024 FSF Case Studies
from the disciplines of Design and Product Development, Marketing,
Merchandising, and Business Strategy. The 2024 FSF case study theme is on
the topic of Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) that enables brands to
evaluate the extent to which a corporation works on behalf of social and
environmental goals. Utilizing an ESG framework, and more specifically,
leaning into the Environmental and Social aspects, students across the four
case study disciplines will consider different aspects of ESG, such as how a
brand would address a specific sustainability goal and methods for
communicating environmental and social actions to consumers. More info,
