At Brighton we used to run an exercise for our 2nd year students
which we called a "Software Hut" (i.e a small software house)
where at the end of phase 1 each group had to market their
product to the other groups for use in phase 2. Worked quite
well as I recall, although I was never directly involved; it
got them doing presentations, sales pitches and advertising,
and also gave them an insight into product evaluation. There
was an article in the Computer Bulletin about it a few years
back (sorry, but I don't have the details).
