THE INNOVATION CLUSTER SIMULATOR
Supercluster!
Designed for visionary national change makers, innovation clusters, national innovation agencies, innovation policymakers, accelerators, incubators, business schools and anyone set on transforming a nation by innovation, Supercluster! The Innovation Cluster Simulator teaches you the basics of Supercluster development.
Build a National Supercluster
Take the role of the leadership team, as you build, structure, and learn how to scale Innovation clusters and build some of the most powerful ecosystems in the world. By the end of the simulation, you will get a clear idea of the pieces needed to build a successful Innovation Supercluster – even if you’ve never heard of the term before today.
From gameplay to national innovation policies
A core part of the gameplay is debriefing and translating into “our real world”. Supercluster! is designed for strategy development and strategic conversations for anyone involved with national innovation policies, ecosystem builders, national innovation agencies, accelerators, incubators, ministeries of trade and innovation, and most importantly, cluster managers and cluster programs worldwide.
Built on real world cluster strategy
The gameplay of Supercluster! is built around the powerful Strategy Tools Supercluster Series, which is developed based on several recognized cluster strategy frameworks that is used by cluster leaders and Superclusters across the globe.
“It was a tough and intense learning experience that still managed to be a lot of fun!”
