The grand finale of Marico Bangladesh Limited's campus-based product innovation competition, Over The Wall Season 4, was held in Dhaka. Team Jinxed from Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP) won this year's edition.

This year recorded the highest participation for the competition. More than 6,000 students registered from over 45 campuses across Bangladesh. After several competitive rounds that included idea submission, development, and mentorship, six finalist teams presented their concepts at the finale. They offered ideas that used technology, sustainability, and creative business strategy.

Team Oops We Tried from Islamic University of Technology finished as First Runner-up. Team The Lannisters from University of Dhaka finished as Second Runner-up.
