The promise was compelling: to unravel Game Theory’s role in everything from environmental treaties to market competition. But the methodology was what truly set it apart. Dr. Sumitra, Associate Professor, Music, PhD, (University of California, Berkeley), Krea University, Sri City, Andhra Pradesh, India and her team championed a powerful, activity-centred approach, built on a simple yet profound idea: to understand negotiation, you must negotiate.
And what an atmosphere it created! The room buzzed with strategic whispers, passionate debates, and the occasional "Aha!" moment. The session was fantastically interactive—every single participant was a key player in their game.
It moved us from "What is Game Theory?" to "How does it feel to be inside the game?"—a perspective shift that is both profound and practical.
The session was more than just interesting; it was electrifying. It proved that the best way to understand the rules of real-world systems is to step onto the field and play.
A huge thanks to Krea University and Dr. Sumitra Ranganathan for designing a masterclass that was as intellectually rigorous as it was genuinely fun. It was a powerful reminder that when learning becomes an engaging game, everyone wins.
