Stormriders is the latest professional management game from market leader Elevated Aps in Denmark. Co-developed with DN, Stormriders is aimed at start-up companies and other innovative managers. The game is built around Christopher Columbus and his endeavours to reach India by sailing west.

Rather than concentrating on the actual voyage, Stormriders lets the game players follow and learn from Columbus as he raises capital from investors, gets Italian bankers' support, organises manpower and resources in Spain, carries out marketing and recruits business partners and agents. This game is a true and accurate lesson in  European cooperation and globalization.

In the end, Columbus does not reach his goal of opening new trading routes to India. Instead he opens a new world. There are valuable lessons here for every business leader today.
