During the event, a number of high school teams, each comprising 3 Year 12 students, competed for a vast array of impressive prizes.

They were judged on their responses to questions across the fields of accounting, business IT and information systems, legal studies, general business studies and general knowledge.

Business educators, school supporters and parents attended to add to the atmosphere of the event, which was organised by CQU's Faculty of Business & Informatics.
