The Start-Up Game™

Raising your business game by knowing what innovation & entrepreneurship mean to your business to create business growth and increased value for customers & key stakeholders!

This is a unique serious and yet playful business simulation designed to ignite an innovative and

entrepreneurship mindset, as well as behavioral and cultural shifts in global organizations who see innovation as

an integral part of their business strategy.

Games are often used in corporations to establish metaphors or mirrors for what happens in ‘real life’ and

business simulations create opportunities for learning through fun, frustration, challenge and discomfort. They

allow people to safely experiment with, and develop capability with the concepts, principles and techniques

presented. They experience failures (and successes) as significant learning experiences without the real life

rewards and consequences and are able to apply these to their current role and business environment.

“The game created a microcosm of the real business world, whilst still keeping the environment both friendly

and competitive. Participants formed groups and were asked to make complex decisions in uncertain situations

with no right or wrong answer, and to the detriment of their own bank balances. A great way for first time

entrepreneurs - as well as seasoned experts - to get a feel for creating, pitching, and operating their own small

business”

It enables players to see business problems and constraints as opportunities

and pursue them in innovative, entrepreneurial, lean and agile ways.

It facilitates ‘learning by doing,’ through constant iteration (repetition) &

pivoting (make an improvement) players’ ideas & solutions for innovative

start-up companies that solve global problems.

It closes the gaps between Theories; what they know and Practice; what

they do, in an engaging, frustrating and challenging business game.

It allows players to experiment, fail and make mistakes as they cycle

through the key phases of developing and realizing an innovative start-up

company.

It gives them the opportunity, in a safe learning environment to make

distinctions (that increase their knowledge) on the innovative theories

presented to apply them in ‘real life’.

They learn how to think creatively, challenge the status quo, and develop a

practical and simple toolkit of techniques that can be applied to their daily

work practices.
