About this program
A free team competition built on a real client case: research, build a long-term strategy in the Wharton Investment Simulator, and submit four deliverables from October to December. Teams are judged on the strategy and how well they defend it, not on portfolio returns. Registration for 2026–27 closed September 11, 2026; the next season opens each August.
