Hi! You've found the Salford Business School testing and possibilities server. We use this box to host a number of occasional services, games and applications. Some are public, some aren't.

By the way, we're part of the University of Salford, close to Manchester city centre in the UK North-West.

The Business Game

Now then: we play this game with High School students to simulate business skills; it actualises issues around supply chain, negotiation, pricing, value, marketing and sales. The game has been developed in-house and is now generally played over a closed WiFi system. A number of teams take on a role - either simulating an OEM or a sub-contractor. You can't do much on your own except admire the beautifully functional AJAX/JQuery drag/drop user interface; if you fancy, log in with the following details: Username: 4; Password: rocket2
