On Serious Games Sharing Serious Games quality projects
For the 4th year, Gamification World Congress is just around the corner. From 10 to 13 November at Fira de Barcelona, gamification experts from all around the world will gather to share the future of Gamification and Serious Games. Are you going to miss it?
60 international top speakers will be presenting their projects and ideas, among them, gamification experts like Gabe Zichermann (Dopamine), Sylvester Arnab (SGI), You-Kai Chou (Octalysis Group), Michael Wu (Lithium) and well-known companies pioneers in applying Serious Games and Gamification technics to their business: Accenture, Mapfre, Telefonica, BBVA… You can take a look to the whole list visiting the GWC15 website.
But what is this all about? As we have discussed lots of times at On Serious Games, gamification and Serious Games try to change the way we think about business, education and health. It is time to forget words like “sacrifice” or “pain” and exchange them for “motivation” and “fun”.
This year’s congress will be especially focused on gamification applied to improve business processes. Be prepared to discover what is going on with Advergaming (video games for branding), game-based learning (learning by playing), growth hacking (explosive marketing technics) and newsgames (translating news into Serious Games) the next big thing in media.
