We held our first GSUMMITx in London this April 30th. Thanks to our venue sponsor, Capgemini, we were able to host a great meetup with over 40 people. Gabe Zichermann kicked it off with a fantastic talk. His three F’s were resounding in our collective heads afterward “Fun, Friends and Feedback”. Next up with…
When you see a 20×8 foot metal board, you’re probably thinking like me…that Tyler Perry may one day have a zombie themed pizzeria with a coinciding game–the more zombies you kill on screen, the more starving people (in real life) you can feed. This concept, a sure winner, was imagined using a gamified ideation tool…
It’s the only time that you’ll see both NYC and Boston win in the same game. GSUMMITx Boston gave the NYC GSUMMITx event a run for its money. Our featured talk by Gabe Zichermann was once again a positively hypnotizing experience. Even though Gabe’s has given his gamification talks multiple times all around the world, each time…
We’re beyond excited to announce Gamification Summit 2012, which will take place in San Francisco June 19-21. Coming on the heels of 2011’s awesome, sold out events in NYC and SF, GSummit 2012 (our only major US event this year) promises to deliver even more of the hands-on, data-rich learning, networking and fun that helps…

Of course, gamification featured prominently in the discussion. In case you missed it, here are some of the gamification apps, slides and videos from…
Awesome attendees and super engagement were the themes of the night at the first GSummitX meetup in NYC on November 30 at AOL Headquarters. When you put 45 people in a room, most of them strangers to one another, the level of engagement is generally networkish-y, but we got beyond and leveled up with this…
We are hard at work preparing the next GSummit for Spring 2012 to be held in San Francisco. Some details are still to be determined, but we would like to invite you to join us in getting a head start to select the next round of creative and innovative individuals to take the stage at…
The two-day boutique Future of Web Design conference concluded yesterday in New York’s Midtown, with speakers focusing heavily on innovation in engagement science. The conference is hosted annually by UK based Carsonified, a design company with a refreshing set of core values.
GSummit San Francisco and New York City were huge hits, selling out and bringing together folks from around the world and from every corner of the gamification and engagement industries. Clearly however, not everyone can come to GSummit – and for many of those who attended, the two intense days of lectures, panels and workshops…
Our last Gamification Summit was a huge success. Taking place September 15-16 in New York City, the Summit brought together top companies, thinkers, and experts in the gamification space for workshops and to share case studies at the cutting edge of gamification. The main stage held keynotes and panel discussions, but some of the best…
The past year has demonstrated a growing demand for education around gamification, and we are excited to continue to meet this demand with the first ever Gamification Workshop in Asia.

As the GSummit NYC came to a close in the main theater, the Gamification Workshop continued into the afternoon. Delegates, abuzz with all the many new ideas they had acquired, seemed to leave the Museum of Jewish Heritage with a renewed vigor and palpable excitement. For those of you who missed the liveblog, read on…
