Teams reaching the finals will be judged on their presentation and reflective skills as well as ability to run a simulated business.
A prize fund of £1200 will be shared with finalist winners!

Student teams entering the competition can comprise people from the same or different faculties although teams with a mix of students from different faculties have a greater chance of making it to the finals.
