THE FINAL RESULT:  "Veni, vidi, vici! for the 'Apex Team'"

"I Came, I Saw, I Conquered". Way back in history, Julius Caesar's sent those famous words in a message back to the Roman Senate in recognition of an overwhelming victory. And so it was for the "Apex Team", who deservedly became the Birmingham City University / Horizon Campus Enginuity 2025 Competition Champions with a highly impressive finishing score of 1,643 pts, and a convincing margin of victory of 62 points. Ultimately their success owed much to them demonstrating one of the guiding principles in running a successful business, consistency, having led the competition for 3 of the 4 rounds.

Behind the Champions the leaders from period 5, "Yamama" moved up 3 places to become this year's Runners Up. "Neobuilt" climbed one place to finish 3rd, and 15% growth, the best in the round, enabled "Action Construction" to surge 8 places up the table to finish 4th.

In the final analysis all 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 4 simulated quarters of management.
