On 22nd–24th February 2023, we hosted a three-day business-simulation game for our MSc in Energy Management students that focused on customer value in the automotive industry and how to find the optimal balance between value proposition and profitability.

The teams benefitted from three days of professionally crafted business scenarios. Students had the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the simulation process, which allowed them to:

• Hone their decision-making skills based on customer sensitivity, engineering and marketing needs
• Strengthen their knowledge on investment, quality, loans and liquidity
• Build a successful competitors’ analysis and company strategy
• Learn how to boost a leadership position and profit optimisation

At the end of the simulation, the teams were asked to come up with decisions and offer best solutions to a set of problems given to them.

The Winning Team

The winning team, based on the most profitable and sustainable business plan, was announced by Dr Georgia Makridou at the end of the third day. Congratulations to all students who took part in this innovative activity!
