Gamification and Education to Nurture Intrapreneurship at Enterprise: GENIE platform launched

The GENIE platform, which offers information on project aims, activities and results, is now online (https://genieproject.eu/). The platform will contain all the project’s information, deliverables and outputs.

GENIE seeks to offer significative solutions for the implementation of intrapreneurship at enterprise by using gamification and education, which have the clear objective of contributing to the competitiveness, growth and innovation of MSMEs. This will in turn crystallise into the development of an innovative set of training tools, such as the delivery of the GENIE boardgame.

This user-friendly Platform has been developed by the Spanish partner of the consortium, IWS (Internet Web Solutions), and will be constantly updated by the partnership as a whole during the project implementation. The platform is available in six languages (English, Spanish, Swedish, German, Croatian and Italian) and consists of the following parts, optimised for different devices and browsers:
