What comes to mind about Startup Sim? What did you get from this experience?
Main challenges you faced? Specific learning in an online context?
"The best learning experience as an EMBA student. I wish I could get more from this simulation by playing different roles. Startup Sim is indeed a great tool that facilitates putting in practice the knowledge accumulated in the EMBA program, without the risk of losing 'real' money."
EMBA participant
"Great simulation, it made us learn about real life and all what we have learnt in the past year. It showed us value of partnerships, trust and collaborations."
EMBA participant
"The game is very well constructed. I appreciated the group size (3 to 4 people max) and the ability to negotiate with so many different stakeholders and partners. I appreciated the learnings related to financials as well; a lot makes much more sense now than last year after finalizing the finance class."
EMBA participant
"Startup Sim does a great job at combining so many topics of our previous learnings. The intensity of timing forces the group to focus. The setting with small company teams worked great for communication within and among teams."
EMBA participant
"Startup Sim was the closest thing to real life situations. It was very intense and motivated me to think through what I had previously learned."
MBA participant
"This simulation really was a capstone course. I applied most of the courses I've taken so far in my MBA, hence the experience was great. It was stressful, no doubt about it, but I think it was part of the learning process and the facilitator was an amazing professor, he really enjoyed what he was doing and was very focused on our learning experience."
MBA participant
"The simulation had a real-world feel and gave me the opportunity to apply some of the concepts and tool learnt in the first part of the MBA course."
MBA participant
"I really enjoyed the intensity of the simulation and how everyone was really into it by the end. The simulation gave me a better understanding of how companies work and how the departments (finance, operation and marketing) operate with each other."
