SYMETRIX
Directeur général adjoint / Deputy Director General
Serious Game Expo has become a must for Symetrix, both for its qualified visitors and the diversity of exhibitors and of course for its conferences. For four years this event has been a great success to us and we are particularly proud to be among 2011 sponsors. Indeed, the year 2011 has represented for Symetrix a year of strategic choices: first, the use of games as useful tools for training, together with Serious Games Session ®; then, mobility. These two innovations have enabled us to develop several projects for large accounts and we are glad to exhibit them at Serious Game Expo.
See you on November, 21-22, at our booth… Symetrix team will be happy to welcome you!

We opted for Qoveo serious game, because we find it an innovative solution, perfect to reach all of our objectives: it acted in a sustainable manner on the behavior of our consultants in terms of security and privacy. The educational approach provided by Qoveo and its serious games allowed us to train and mobilize an audience of engineers tired of the usual training methods. The funny and narrative approach similar to that one of TV series helped also to create a real buzz, something that maintained a certain interest in this program. This first successful experience we had with serious game opened up some interesting perspectives for the future. We will not miss this new edition of the show to explore new Qoveo projects.
