All Star

Every year, ASDAN invites top 60% of teams from regional round competitions to participate in the All Star Semi-Finals, which is a national business simulation challenge following a ‘Legendary Story’ theme. Over 100 teams from dozens of regional round competitions across China meet at the All Star Business Simulation Challenge. Winning teams from the All Star Business Simulation will advance directly to WYEF National Finals Round, and also stand a chance to visit Silicon Valley to pitch their ideas to top global investors, and to win up to tens of thousands of dollars of angel investments.

The All Star Business Simulation Challenge is of a higher difficulty level than local round competitions. In the All Star Business Simulation, companies will undergo a more intense business operation challenge as they make 7 rounds of operational decisions which symbolize their two-year company survival strategy. Each company begins with the same initial capital and produces similar products in the market. Companies need to build solid knowledge of their industry and to manage multiple areas of their businesses from promoting new products and building financial models to broadening their corporate social influence and completing roadshow presentations to a board of directors.

Business leaders need to master diverse skillsets to successfully run their business, one of which includes pitching their ideas to grow their business capital. Hence within the All Star Business Simulation, companies need to complete three roadshows of different topics as they manage their operations. Each company is competing with competitors from the same industry and companies need to simultaneously manage their financial performance in the market and to conduct market research for their roadshow presentations. During roadshow presentations, companies need to use effective and persuasive language to win over their investors and gain additional “investment" for their business operations.

Business leaders are strategy masters and know how to maximise the value of their resources effectively to build a successful business. Students will learn how to work on developing a good strategy through this auction challenge. Each company plays a different role and utilizes their resources to negotiate and trade with other companies to achieve the highest amount of profit. Companies need to expand their network of Three Kingdom contacts to conduct persuasive trading deals and to achieve their desired trading outcome.
