IBM Innov8 for Business Simulations trailer

INNOV8 is an interactive, 3-D business simulator designed to teach the fundamentals of business process management and bridge the gap in understanding between business leaders and IT teams in an organization. This type of serious gaming - simulations which have the look and feel of a game but correspond to non-game events or processes such as business operations - has emerged as a successful method to train students and employees and accelerate the development of new skills.

Case Study of INNOV8 at USC Marshall

USC Marshall partners with IBM's "serious gaming" academic initiative to teach business process management (BPM) to students. USC Marshall students and teachers talk about the IBM-created "INNOV8," a videogame-like simulator program that challenges students to streamline and rationalize a company's operations after a merger.
