Original Thinking

That was what was required at the Origin Asset Management Charity Challenge 2013 last week, where 70 of the City's best brains gathered to do battle with our fiendish quiz questions for the chance to donate £2000 to a charity of their choice. Mercer FSJeeves were the winning quiz team, with an impressive score of 78 out of a potential 80, donating their well-deserved winnings to Save the Children.

The Origin quiz followed hot on the heels of Brain Men's first ever intercontinental simulquiz - a four round challenge for staff at a well-known financial institution, held simultaneously by the miracle of modern technology in both London and New York!
