Business game successfully arranged for KPMG Sweden

The KPMG In-House business game tournament was successfully arranged by Business Game Factory. Four teams from KPMG Sweden competed against each other in a business simulation over four days. In the business game each team assumed a management role of a global company.

After a fierce competition for profits and market shares, “The Diamond Dogs” beat the competition and secured a place in the
BGF Semifinals that will be celebrated in September 2008.

Charlotte Gustavsson, the diamond dogs’ team leader said: “It was a positive experience and we got to know each other better while working on the case. The questions related to operating the company is to a certain extent linked to our own way of working so it was fun discussing these matters with colleagues in a more relaxed manner. It was also interesting to watch how competitive it got between the teams - it was great fun!”
