The United States Association for Small Business and Entrepreneurship (USASBE) conference was held in downtown Nashville, 2010.  500+ entrepreneurship scholars and educators from around the globe gathered for this important occurrence.  ILS was an exhibitor for this event featuring our Venture Strategy business simulation.

The Venture Strategy simulation is designed for the New Ventures, Business Policy, and Capstone business courses. It exposes the participants to all the aspects of business including:  Marketing, Product Development, Accounting, Finance and Manufacturing Fundamentals, Financial Analysis, Business Partner Negotiations, Human Resource Management and e-Commerce.  It was great to see Entrepreneurship enthusiasts truly excited to take a look at our Venture Strategy simulation offered in the 3D animated Marketplace Live format.  Current and prospective users of Marketplace Live are genuinely inspired by how the simulation engages participants.

This conference will be held at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina next year.  Be sure to mark this in your planner and get ready for some fun in the sun!
