Last Year's Final Results:    During April 25- April 27, 2001 DECA,  Kmart, Kelloggs, and KnowledgeMatters, Inc. sponsored the VirtualBusiness Challenge Nationals. The Challenge was a LIVE event held in the exhibition hall during DECA's International CDC conference in Anaheim, CA. The 16 VBC finalists participated all vying for the top prize of $2,000 in prize money and recognition at the Grand Awards Ceremony.

During the finals, each team managed all aspects of running a store including: pricing, promotion, merchandising, purchasing, staffing, and location. In all rounds, teams challenged fellow DECA members in live action!  The goal of the challenge was to earn the most profits for their store.
