Questions leaders ask before the first sprint.
What is Arena?+
Arena by BioQuant IQ is a facilitated decision-sprint platform for leadership teams. In the two-day Arena Sprint, 15 to 20 leaders work a real cross-functional problem on their own data. Every option is priced live against the company’s own P&L. The room leaves with a ranked plan, named owners, KPIs and a 90-day execution rhythm.
Who is Arena for?+
Leadership teams, heads of department and functional leaders facing a decision that crosses functions — strategy offsites, margin and cost, pricing under competition, capital allocation, and operating-model design.
How is Arena different from a workshop or a consulting report?+
A workshop creates energy that decays within the week; a report hands you an answer to absorb. Arena builds a bespoke sprint on your data, prices every decision on your P&L, captures how the team decides, and converts the room into an owned plan with a 90-day cadence.
Is Arena a business simulation or a war game?+
It works like both, on your own business. Teams war-game real options with a fixed token budget, and every option is priced live against your own P&L. Unlike a classic business simulation, the company is not invented. The sprint runs on your real problem and your own context, and the room leaves with owned decisions.
What data do you need?+
As much or as little as you’re comfortable sharing. On public data alone the sprint is anchored to your industry and scale; with your internal data it becomes a near-replica of your operating reality. Your data is never used to train a public or third-party AI model.
Do you score individuals?+
No. Arena reads decision behaviour at the team level — how the group commits, compares, defers or anchors — not an individual personality score or profile, and never for hiring, promotion or other employment decisions.
How long is a sprint, and who’s in the room?+
Two days, in person. Typically 15–20 leaders across every function that owns the problem, mixed into three to four competing teams.
What do we walk away with?+
A tested, ranked plan the room owns; a decision map of how your team decides under pressure; and initiatives tied to owners, KPIs and a 90-day rhythm.
What does it cost?+
Arena is a fixed-fee engagement with a repeatable shape: a scoped decision brief, the two-day Arena Sprint room, and a 90-day follow-through rhythm — one package, agreed before the room. No day rates, no open-ended consulting tail. Tell us the problem you’d bring and we’ll confirm scope and fee in one call: letustalk@bioquantiq.ch.
Is our information kept private?+
Yes. Arena runs on your own context using a sandbox construct. We never sell your data and never train public or third-party AI models on it. See our Privacy Policy.
