Below is a summary of the content of the event as well as some (naturally) images of the evening.

 

The Application of Game Theory in Business

 

If you want to build a ship, don‘t drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea” Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

 

The above quote quite succinctly and laymanly explain the unique approach of game theory.

 

TWS Partners is the only company globally which is exclusively and successfully using Nobel Prize winning research in the field of game theory to improve business performance. They have already successfully implemented over 2000 projects, working with market leading organisations in Europe and internationally within the Automotive and Transportation, High-Tech and Telco, Pharmaceutical, Chemicals and Consumer Goods industries, with a total spend of more than 150bn Euros.

Founded in 2001 in Munich as a spin-off from industry and research, TWS Partners is still closely connected to the scientific world – and therefore always up to date. Professor Achim Wambach (President of ZEW – Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung) advocate this scientific approach. Market leaders trust the TWS approach and use it to lever sustainable competitive advantage.
