The Negotiation Challenge thrives through the generous support of its sponsors. First, we extend our gratitude to the University of Cape Town Graduate School of Business for their kind hospitality and hosting the final rounds of TNC 2025 on their beautiful campus in Cape Town, South Africa.
We also acknowledge the invaluable contributions of our other sponsors, whose support ensures the seamless execution of TNC: Columbia’s Negotiation and Conflict Resolution, Schranner Negotiation Institute

Rational Games is a boutique consultant and training company based in Berlin, focused on teaching negotiation and leadership using playful methods: not much Power Point or lecturing, but lots of experiential learning also involving theater, music and dance. We think negotiation is a game and should be handled as such. This is a much more enjoyable way to interact with your partner and invariably leads to better results. Over the last 24 years, RGI has taught in 40 countries around the world, not only on Zoom, in German, English and French. Our main clients are the German Foreign Ministry, one of the parties in the Bundestag, and CEOs of large corporations, but also startups and NGOs. We try to teach all to be playful.
Thank you, dear sponsors! Your kind support enriches the experience for all participants, fostering TNC as a global platform for students to develop their negotiation skills.
