Microsoft Excel has become the number one tool for office workers in calculations and creating spreadsheets. Despite countless famous games, few would have guessed that Excel could transform into an eSports discipline played around the world.
The FFWC will take place starting June 8.
You heard that right! Recently on its official Twitter page, Microsoft Excel announced the Financial Modeling World Cup. Essentially, this is an eSports tournament using Excel spreadsheet software for live competitions. Contestants will need to use their “lightning-fast” calculation skills to streamline Excel spreadsheets based on given prompts.
