Product Licencing - Commercial partnership opportunities
By licencing Elgood’s market-leading business and commercial acumen games and simulations you can broaden your client base and grow your revenues.
Increasingly businesses are turning to business games and simulations to create lasting behavioural change among their employees.
This is because people engage with simulations and games and like this collaborative, experimental and fun approach to learning.
Elgood Effective Learning was an early adopter of the concept of using gamification to effectively tackle business challenges and improve organisational performance. Today it is recognised as an authority and leading designer of games and simulations, and we know from existing partners there is an increasing demand in the training marketplace both in the UK and abroad that can be addressed using our tried and tested products.

Licencing our products means you share the expertise without the investment.
- We analysed the business challenges, agreed outcomes and considered any constraints
- We developed a prototype and determined the best game method to use and the experience level needed to deliver it

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a business simulation game?
The term business simulation game covers a wide range of activities, anything from a card based face to face activity to an interactive online one. It is used to refer to business focused activities deigned to develop business acumen and management focused activities designed to improve the way in which an organisation is managed. Our thinking has evolved to define a business simulation game as:
“A device through which individuals learn about how businesses and organisations work, and which enables them to improve their performance within their organisation through the development of business and/or inter-personal skills.”
The device offers participants a safe environment in which they can make decisions, experience consequences and understand the relationship between the two. It usually focuses on a problem area in which a better outcome could be achieved if people know more or behaved differently.
Some examples of the different types of simulation game can be found in our Ultimate Guide to Building Business Games and Simulations that Work .
What is a management game?
I will break this into two parts. The word game is used to describe activities in which some, or all, of these characteristics are prominent:
- Human, or humanly controlled, opponents, whose actions have an effect, upon each other and upon the environment.
- An emphasis on competitiveness and ‘winning’.
- An emphasis on pleasure, humour and enjoyment.
- A repetitive cycle of making decisions and encountering a result, allowing the hope of improvement and of ‘doing better next time’.
The addition of the word management indicates a focus on planning, management and control of any organisation or project in circumstances where profit is not the dominant measure of success.
