New technologies like the Internet of Things, Blockchain or Machine Learning have great potential for businesses. However, carefully evaluating and selecting purposeful technologies – aligned to the digital strategy – is the key to success. Technologies appear, change and also vanish so rapidly in the digital age, that a proper understanding is crucial for a sustainable technological foundation. Focusing on the characteristic features of technologies, the presented approach promises to create a better technological understanding for decision makers in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in a playful manner: With a serious game that fosters insight and allays fears of digitalization.
