Since 2011, a role-playing game, a board game and a digital interactive simulation platform have been developed under the name MSP Challenge. The latest digital MSP Challenge Simulation Platform editions were developed by the Cradle R&D lab at BUas' Academy for Digital Entertainment. They have since been used in workshops, conferences, education, as well as for real life stakeholder engagement. By doing so we help develop a global learning MSP community.

De markt van groepsvakanties en groepsuitjes is sterk in beweging. Mensen gaan steeds meer in groepsverband op pad in wisselende samenstelling. Het aanbod kent steeds meer spelers naast de traditionele groepsaccommodaties. Ook op het gebied van marketing is de sector in beweging met een veelheid aan boekingsplatforms en groepsaccommodatie-ondernemers die het heft in eigen hand nemen. En tot slot kent ook de belangenbehartiging een roerige tijd met de oprichting van de stichting Groepsaccommodaties Nederland (GAN). GAN is een jonge brancheorganisatie die staat voor de belangenbehartiging en promotie van de op dit moment ca. 100 leden, allemaal ondernemers met één of meerdere groepsverblijven. Gelet op al deze ontwikkelingen heeft GAN het initiatief genomen om te komen tot een nieuwe strategische visie voor de groepsaccommodaties. Waar staat deze bedrijfstak voor, wat komt er op de ondernemers af en hoe kunnen ze hierop inspelen? Voor de ontwikkeling van deze visie heeft GAN samenwerking gezocht met het Centre of Expertise Leisure, Tourism and Hospitality (CELTH) en de Hogescholen Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas; voorheen bekend als NHTV) en NHL Stenden, die hiervoor ook haar European Tourism Futures Institute heeft ingezet. De onderwijsinstellingen hebben met inzet van docenten en studenten diverse deelonderzoeken uitgevoerd die als ‘bouwstenen’ voor het proces op weg naar de visie beschouwd kunnen worden. Aanvullend is nog een schriftelijke enquête gehouden onder (450) groepsaccommodaties in Nederland (respons 34%).

As a result, this report contains a BUas-wide research agenda on Digital Realities with a framework of overall, generic research questions, methodologies and ecosystems. This research has been financed by Regieorgaan SIA, part of the Dutch National Funding Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO)
