INSTRUCTOR · FACILITATOR
Set up and run a round
Open the facilitator workspace to review submissions, manage shared market assumptions, check all groups, and publish the round results.
Make connected decisions across sourcing, production, quality, markets, and finance. See how each choice changes the whole business.
Two exchange arenas. One strategy-driven simulation platform.
START WITH YOUR ROLE
Instructors open and guide the Berrynomics room. Students enter the group assigned to them. Both paths lead into the same round, with permissions set by the access code.
INSTRUCTOR · FACILITATOR
Open the facilitator workspace to review submissions, manage shared market assumptions, check all groups, and publish the round results.
STUDENT · COMPANY TEAM
Choose your group and enter the code supplied by your facilitator. Your draft decisions remain private from rival groups until the round is resolved.
Current pilot access: Berrynomics uses one facilitator code and a separate shared access code for each group. It does not yet use individual student accounts or personal invitation tokens. Ask your facilitator if the room is not available or your code does not work.
TWO EXCHANGE ARENAS · AFRICAN BUSINESS SYSTEMS
Qubicbox Simulations explores more than agribusiness. The Harvest Exchange is the current pilot; Manufacturing Exchange is being designed as a second, distinct strategic world.
AGRIBUSINESS · CURRENT PILOT
Build resilient businesses around perishable crops, grower networks, post-harvest handling, cold-chain logistics, buyers, and working capital.
INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS · NEXT ARENA
Explore the pressures behind an industrial business: sourcing inputs, using capacity, managing quality and inventory, and getting products to market.
The manufacturing model and its games are still being designed. No manufacturing scenario is playable yet.
Evidence before certainty. Berrynomics is a strategy-learning pilot. Plan figures, competitor profiles, and market-response coefficients are labelled assumptions until transaction and operating records support calibration.
THE ROUND CYCLE
Teams work through one decision window. Results are calculated together after decisions are locked, so the market outcome reflects everyone’s choices.
Review the operating context, reports, and the assumptions that shape this round.
Set your company’s sourcing, quality, pricing, delivery, and finance choices.
Teams submit privately. The facilitator closes the decision window.
Review performance, compare the league, and carry balances into the next round.
LEARN THROUGH CONSEQUENCES
Production, service, pricing, and financing choices are linked. A sales win can strain cash; more capacity can sit idle; high quality only pays when the buyer values it.

The Berrynomics pilot supports seven competing groups, private draft decisions, facilitator-controlled round closure, simultaneous results, and group-level financial reports.
