IBM's Serious Games

Caroline Taylor, IBM UK and Ireland Vice President -- Marketing and Communications, explains the thinking behind IBM's 'Serious Games'.

CityOne and Innov8 are examples of what IBM like to call 'Serious Games', real-world simulations that push users to develop innovative solutions to real-world problems.

By allowing students to better understand complex system interactions and model business outcomes through interactive 3D environments that mimic reality, games like Innov8 and City One become an invaluable tool in training the workforce of tomorrow.

For more information on Serious Games like Innov8 and CityOne, and the Smarter Planet Comes to You campaign - a European roadshow visiting 24 universities in 12 countries through February and March 2011 - please visit www.facebook.com/ibmskillstour.
