THE FINAL RESULT:  "The 'McLaren Team' are the 2025 Champions!"

In a dramatic final round it was the "McLaren Team" who held off a strong challenge from their rivals to emerge as the University of Melbourne Enginuity 2025 Champions with a very impressive finishing score of 1,904 pts. Ultimately their success owed much to them demonstrating one of the guiding principles in running a successful business, consistency, having led the competition for 4 of the 6 rounds.

In the Final Round "Sunshine Industries" nearly caused a major upset with a 9% improvement that saw them move 6 places to finish the Runners Up, and within 30 points of the Champions. "Auctora" finished 3rd, and "Solid Core" dropped one place to 4th. All across the final round there were mixed results, with "Buildcore" and "Voltcore" posting the joint best performance with eyecatching 16% improvements that lifted them both into mid table.

In the final analysis all of the teams finished with stronger, more sustainable companies than when they took over in period 5, a testament to the skill and application shown by the management teams in what was a roller coaster of a journey through 6 simulated quarters of management.
