About this simulation
A 90-minute, 4-round basic Express simulation on moving a micro-business from a market stall to fixed premises - or not - for pre-incubation and incubation programmes, chamber-of-commerce, municipal and microfinance entrepreneurship courses and technical, technological and undergraduate entrepreneurship, small-business and retail courses.
Rosa, a fictional phone-repair technician in Cuenca, Ecuador, has worked for seven years at a municipal market stall with loyal regulars; her fictional programme asks every quarter what she sold, what was left for her, how many regulars still buy from her, how exposed the business is and how many hours she works.
Round by round you choose whether to move, to which premises and on what lease, what happens to the stall and its regulars and how the shop is fitted out and opened, who works in the shop and what it sells, and how to answer the landlord's 50% raise and stock Christmas.
Each quarter is scored on income, sales, regulars kept, risk and hours; opening without the municipal permits, or selling refurbished phones as new, caps the score. Spanish with English.
Who it is for
An introductory simulation that assumes no prior knowledge of the subject, designed for undergraduate courses. It also works in vocational and high-school programmes and in onboarding sessions.
How a session runs
- The instructor creates a session from the Eureka dashboard and invites the participants.
- Participants play 4 rounds. In each one they submit their decisions and the simulation calculates the results. The first round opens with: Lunes 4 de enero de 2027: si te mudas, adónde y con qué contrato.
- The simulation can be run in English, Español.
- The instructor follows each participant's progress and results from the dashboard, and uses the class results for the debrief.
