Simulation games
Behind every simulation game developed by HBS Berlin is a real company and a team of experts. We create our activities in partnership with our clients. The Restaurant Management game was developed with the managing director of an events and catering company in Moscow; the logistics simulation with the staff of a waste management company in southern Germany. We also design activities tailored to the needs of individual firms. With a bank in Switzerland; we conceptualized, developed and realized a four-day international event to train young professionals in project management, business processes and portfolio management. With one of the largest confectionery manufacturers in Germany, we successfully developed and implemented a relocation simulation. Our products always focus on the individual needs and learning requirements of the participants. Computer-based simulations round off our balanced seminar portfolio. We are one of the few business game developers that offer both business board games and computer-based games – and we have been doing so successfully for over 10 years. If we don’t cover your area of interest, we are happy to recommend a suitable provider. We know (almost) all our competitors and work in close cooperation with some.

Interactive seminars
At HBS Berlin, we view ourselves as learning mentors. Our coaches create optimal learning environments, establish a successful social architecture in the seminar room and design interactive seminars. Participants need space for creative freedom, inspiration and time for helpful dialogue. A balanced mix of projects, simulations, case studies, presentations and group discussions guarantee a successful learning process. Our coaches have already trained participants from more than 30 countries, and our seminar concepts take differences in learning cultures into account – e.g. varied cultural backgrounds, qualifications, age structure. HBS Berlin seminars are also held in conjunction with our best practice partners, such as BMW, Airbus, Brose, VW, Mercedes, eCom, Deutsche Bank, KPM.

4 Reasons for the HBS Berlin
Through our seminars, participants should effortlessly expand their skill sets.

Our clients
We address three key target groups
Universities and colleges
Universities and colleges often struggle to deliver practical experience. Students are expected to take on managerial positions and contribute to business success without ever seeing the inner workings of a company first-hand. Our simulation games close this gap. We offer students an opportunity to manage a firm, launch a new product or open a subsidiary in South America. The hands-on experience eases the transition to the workplace for many students.
We have designed following formats especially for universities
- Alumni Meetings
- Seminars in the Master’s program
- Key skills for students and teachers
Public sector
The success of international projects depends on the scale and quality of existing networks. Our networks span from Russia to Moldova, from Azerbaijan to Ukraine. They ensure efficient communication and the speedy completion of tasks. Institutions like Germany’s Chambers of Industry and Commerce (IHK) and the German Federal Enterprise for International Cooperation (GIZ GmbH) rely on our expertise.
We have designed following formats especially for the public sector
- International Management Training
- “Coaching the coach” seminars
- Follow-up days
- Training formats
Private sector
Private enterprises especially value our business games. The simulations uncover the inner workings of a company and make them tangible. By visualizing processes we expose potential sources of error. Business games avoid lengthy explanations and turn training sessions into experiences that boost learning efficiency. The motto of our business game seminars is: see, touch, understand, improve.
We have designed following formats especially for the private sector
- Seminar advice and organization
- International study tours
- Team building corparate events
