Dr. Steven Gold and Harvey Gold are twin brothers who have worked together to develop an educational simulation integrating microeconomic theory with business practice. Steven's academic background with expertise in simulation & gaming combined with Harvey's extensive business experience were synergistic for developing a simulation game that significantly engages students by providing a meaningful real -world business environment where students observe, analyze, plan and then implement economic theories.
