N2  - Game theory has gained momentum in terms of the strategic relevance it possess in making effective decisions. Game theory's influence and applicability have extended broadely across areas ranging from mathematics and computer science to various social and biological sciences. More recently, game theory has undergone a renaissance having profound applications in the field of management, encompassing economics, finance, marketing, operations research and imperatively in evolving strategies. Game theory's essentiality as strategies between / amongst players enables most business conditions to be conceived as games.
