Eureka vs Revas
A Polish catalogue of industry simulations — run a hair salon, a restaurant or a travel agency — built to introduce entrepreneurship in secondary, vocational and first-year courses, versus a catalogue with business-school depth, in 16 languages and inside your LMS.
For economics, business and entrepreneurship teachers in secondary, vocational and early university courses — and whoever buys for them — choosing between a small-business simulation by industry and a catalogue that reaches the strategy, finance and marketing of an MBA.

When Revas is the better choice
Revas does one thing very well: it puts a group that has never run a company in charge of a small business they recognise. Choose them when:
- You teach introductory entrepreneurship in a secondary or vocational school and want the business to be the trade itself: 19 industries on one model — hair salon, restaurant, car workshop, vet clinic, school café — so a hospitality school plays the restaurant and the teacher learns a single mechanic. Every package includes teacher certification: three videos, a test and a 3-hour online workshop.
- You teach in Poland or in Polish: Revas is in Polish, presents itself as aligned with the Biznes i zarządzanie subject, has been used by more than 1,000 Polish schools (company figure) and runs a national championship now in its ninth edition. Eureka is not available in Polish.
- You want to buy without negotiating: a public price list by package, no signed contract, a perpetual licence hosted on your own servers if you need one, and free international competitions — BOSS for universities, BOSS Junior for secondary schools — with cash prizes.
When Eureka is the better choice
Eureka wins when the course has to go beyond the small business: more subjects, more languages, and inside your LMS.
- You need more than a service business: Revas's 19 industries share the same decisions — hiring, wages, equipment, advertising and prices. Eureka has 37 core simulations in strategy, finance, marketing, operations, leadership and sustainability (18 co-developed with IESE faculty), and Eureka Basics adds 2,000+ short formats for secondary and introductory courses.
- You teach in Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, French, Italian or Basque — or in several languages at once: Eureka's platform is in 16 languages and Eureka Basics in 9. Revas works mainly in Polish and English, publishes no list of its languages and keeps language versions for the Basic package and above.
- You want the simulation inside the LMS, and the teacher's data whatever the package: LTI and SAML SSO into Moodle, Canvas or Blackboard, and a live instructor dashboard with decision data taggable by competency. Revas hands out one licence key per student, publishes no LTI, and caps students, industries and the teacher reports module (Plus and VIP only) by package. And if the case is your own, Eureka co-develops it with you.
Sometimes you use both
They coexist well. A school can keep Revas in the introductory entrepreneurship course or the vocational track where running the hair salon or the restaurant is exactly the point, and use Eureka in the strategy, finance and marketing courses, in the Spanish- and Portuguese-language programmes, and wherever the simulation has to live inside the LMS.

A small business by industry, or a catalogue that grows with the programme?
Tell us which subject you teach, in which language and at what level. If you want a secondary or vocational class to run a business from its own trade for the first time, in Polish or English, Revas is a good answer; if you need more subjects, more languages and your LMS, let us show you ours.
