Storyline:

In the distant, mountainous land of Montiron, the legendary sword-making empire, Cutting Edge, is thrown into turmoil after the untimely passing of its 8th heir, who left no will. With no clear successor, relatives and top executives are locked in a fierce struggle for control over the company, vying for a stake in its centuries-old legacy, unmatched craftsmanship, and the coveted secrets behind its iconic blades. Meanwhile, rival companies from within Montiron and far beyond see this as their golden opportunity to penetrate the market and seize the throne of the sword industry. As a player, you must leverage every resource at your disposal—the inherited know-how, strategic alliances, and invaluable intellectual property passed down through generations. Can you outmanoeuvre your competitors and secure your place at the helm of Cutting Edge, or will the empire slip through your grasp? The future of Montiron’s most storied sword dynasty rests in your hands.

This evening is presented to you by Henry Bernick Entrepreneurship Centre (HBEC) of Georgian College and Grey Bruce Makers. Join Felix Yuen, IP & Commercialization Specialist and Amanda Mejia, Business Development Manager, for a fun night of business strategizing!
