The Business Simulation Blog

This article is in response to a request received from one of our regular readers, Norris Krueger, after an earlier post of ours titled What Would You Like Us To Write About?. Norris is a scholar, speaker, writer, educator (TED_ED Brain Trust) and you can follow him on Twitter at @entrep_thinking.

Heat, humidity and thousands of management professors from all over the world; this welcomed the attendees of the 73rd Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management in Orlando, FL. This year's theme was 'Capitalism in Question' and the sessions covered a variety of exciting papers centered around the subject. Cesim Business Simulations was represented at two locations this year: the main exhibit hall at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel and outside Ballroom J at the Coronado Springs Resort. 

The project is expected to be an important element of a chain of projects which aim to establish a virtual training environment for SMEs. The current project focuses particularly on one major group: adults who do not have a strong economic- and business educational background, and the goal is to provide them with further education in these fields. These students may need different learning content and varied pedagogical approaches, which is ensured by the various e-learning tools the project provides.

The annual conference organized by the Academy of Management has once again been a tremendous success. Educators from all over the world came to share ideas, sit in on sessions, and come by the exhibitor hall to meet publishers and educational tool providers. This time around, the location was the prestigious city of Boston, MA — home to both Harvard and MIT. We would like to thank the AOM team, our visitors, and our clients for coming by our desk and sharing their opinion with us on the business simulations industry.
