simulation of the BackBay Battery, managing the company’s mature technology NiMH and the emerging potential disruptive UC technology, I learned many lessons from analysing the game results, and also from the decision making process during the simulation. I adopted many different strategies in different playing times. The following report will discuss three main strategies I adopted, namely 1. investing in both technologies, 2. nurturing new technology with profit form current health business, and 3. cost leadership
