In the WYEF Global Finals, companies face fiercer competition in a global marketplace as they manage more intensive business operations compared to regional round competitions. Each company will complete a total of 8 business operation rounds (simulating a 2-year period) in which they manage factors such as cultural differences, monetary policy, marketing promotion and financial modelling. Companies will be challenged to develop holistic business management skills by tackling different challenges.
The academic program in WYEF is closely aligned with global hot topics. In addition to international cutting-edge economic themes, it also follows the Sustainable Development Goals. Throughout the simulation, companies will have to complete different tasks in which they stand a chance to win extra capital for their business operations. Companies will have to prepare roadshow presentations according to the given tasks and to communicate their ideas articulately to win over their investors and to secure more capital for their business.
Each company possesses different resources and conducts cross-border transactions with companies from other ‘countries’ to obtain the resources that they need. In addition to negotiation skills, companies also need to consider environmental factors such as fluctuations in exchange rate to maximize their profits.
