Peeptrade formed the challenge with the objective of giving students hands-on experience in the financial markets. Future competitions are expected to extend to even more universities across the globe.
Peeptrade's recent partnership with Interactive Brokers offered spectators the ability to follow each team's trading activity in real-time."This has truly been the most exciting competition we've had yet," said Peeptrade co-founder Ali Bakir. "We're looking forward to seeing if Georgetown can defend their title in the next challenge!"
Georgetown professor Thomas Cooke said, "This is just an astounding program. Speaking on behalf of the Georgetown team, I can say that this has been a fantastic opportunity for our students to bring the real world to the table."
Peeptrade's mobile app could be downloaded on both Google Play and the App Store.
