Industry-specific Business Simulations
In addition to our standard product portfolio, we have developed several industry-specific simulations for our corporate customers in recent years. Contact us to learn more!
Production Management
In our production-based business simulations, several companies go head-to-head in a competitive environment to dominate the market. From traditional manufacturers to start-ups, each team must maneuver their company through the volatile market.
TOPSIM – Insurance
As board members of a typical insurance company, the participants have to make operational and strategic decisions in order to provide three different customer segments with liability, accident, and building insurance in the event of an emergency.
TOPSIM – Banking
This business game simulates the banking industry and lets participants manage a medium-sized universal bank. They must fulfil customer needs with products in the areas of business banking, investment banking, wealth management and financial management.
Social Management
In this simulation, participants take on the challenge of managing a nursing home. They will make operational decisions to be economical and competitive. At the same time, they must consider the needs of residents and caregivers. This simulation is currently available in German only.
Ready to Experience TOPSIM?
We offer strategically challenging seminars and customized business game solutions – realistic, interactive, digital.
You Facilitate the Simulation
You can license our simulations and conduct your seminars with your own trainers. In a train-the-trainer seminar, we teach you how to use the business simulation and help you to become a certified TOPSIM instructor so that you can design your own seminar individually.
TOPSIM Facilitates the Simulation
Together we develop the seminar concept for your target group, from trainees to top management. We define goals, content and methods and bring the necessary practical relevance and expertise with our simulations. Thanks to our network of trainers, you have an expert at your side.
Custom Simulation Development
We created more than 150 individual business simulations, from simple board games to computer-based management simulations. With our extensive experience, we develop a business game that is individually tailored to your needs. We focus on industry-specific processes and design the simulation according to your desired learning objectives.
Digital Learning Solutions
Whether it’s explanatory videos, web-based trainings, mobile learning or immersive technologies such as VR, AR or MR – with innovative applications in digital teaching, you can train a large number of participants in a location-independent and targeted manner. We are happy to support you in finding the optimal learning solution for your company or educational institution.
