"The Summit program sucks you in! It helped me understand economics and the world in ways I had not experienced before."
Andrea Lasley, Student from United States

The Summit is a simulation of the global economy. It is an effective learning experience for high school and university students on globalization, international relations and economics. At the Summit, student teams, representing the nations of today's complex world, compete for scarce resources, form strategic country alliances, debate global issues, invest in long term development projects, interact with global economic institutions, and seek to stabilize and advance the global economy.
