The Markstrat Simulation Challenge

Markstrat is a strategic interactive marketing simulation which offers MBA students and professionals a risk-free platform to test theories and make decisions. In this marketing strategy simulation game every aspect is real: from competitive forces to the effects of sales, distribution, R&D and advertising, segmentation, positioning, market research, etc.  Each team’s actions will have direct consequences on the market, thus competitive analysis is a must. Competitor actions and reactions, new product launches, sales and distribution strategies all define how teams will manage their own product portfolio, R&D projects, positioning, pricing and distribution channels.

Teams must plan not only for short-term profits, but also for long-term objectives; this simulation is not only about tactical marketing decisions, but also long-term strategy.
