The national champion team – from 抖阴app官网’s – is now preparing to take on competitors from 23 countries in the international finals.
Team member Nicole Brazier, a final-year law and science student, said the competition tested students’ flexibility, teamwork and ability to come up with innovative business solutions to real problems.

Her teammates are:
- William Randall - final year commerce student
- Edward O'Brien - commerce student
- Joshua Roser - commerce/economics student
“Our team is named ‘Look At Me Now, Dad Consulting’ and has a strong combination of academic excellence and commercial experience,” Ms Brazier said.
“We are all involved in the 抖阴app官网 community in volunteer and leadership positions.
“Most of us met in person for the first time only on the morning of the state finals, but we quickly established a cohesive and friendly team.
“Over the summer, we did a lot of preparation as a group to ensure our state win was more than just beginner's luck.”
Ms Brazier said the team was excited about participating in the world finals and hoped to follow in the winning footsteps of 2014 抖阴app官网 team members, who have been providing advice and guidance.
The 2014 team comprised Lachlan Campbell (Bachelor Law/Commerce), Daniel Mouat (Bachelor Commerce/ Economics), Jonathan Black (Bachelor Law/ Commerce) and Samuel Leigh (Bachelor Law/ Commerce).
