The MikesBikes World Champs (MWC) is an opportunity for the best performing MikesBikes teams from around the world to compete for the title of MikesBikes World Champion. Entrance is FREE for all participants.

All Time MWC Wall of Champions.

How do I enter the competition?

Smartsims will invite the top teams from courses around the world who have used either our MikesBikes Intro or MikesBikes Advanced business simulations. Please note the competition will be conducted using the MikesBikes Advanced simulation (browser version only). Any number of members from the team can compete, but there can only be one competing team per invitation.

Your response to our invitation email must be received prior to December 4, 2022 at 6pm EST (Eastern Standard Time).

How is a winner determined?

At the end of the Final Round, the firm with the highest Shareholder Value will be crowned the MikesBikes World Champion. Both the winner and runner up will be featured in our website.

The winners will join previous title holders featured on the Wall of Champions. Both first and second place will receive a certificate, and a professionally written article on their achievement which we will promote externally (often published on university websites and newsletters). This achievement and the published article will be a great addition to your resume and are accessible by prospective employers.

How will the competition be structured?

The competition will run in two rounds: a Qualification Round and a Final Round.

In the Qualification Round, you will be competing against other students. After the fourth rollover of the Qualifying Round, the Top 10 companies ranked by Shareholder Value across all qualifying firms will move to the Final Round where competitors will start a new simulation and complete 6 rollovers.

The qualifying participant(s) will be determined by the highest Shareholder Value in the Qualifying Round. Where two or more teams qualify from the same school, only the top team based on Shareholder Value will be admitted to the Final Round.

In the Final Round, the Top 10 teams will be competing against each other in one Multi-Player World.

Note: After each rollover you can identify where your company is ranked by referring to the Scoreboard that will be featured on this page.
