Technology is ideally suited to team-building and corporate away days
A specialist events company has signed a deal with Gleneagles hotel to offer business conference delegates the chance of a non-golfing way to explore the grounds – using a ‘treasure hunt’ app.
Team Challenge Company is working with the Perthshire hotel and international course to deliver the app as a way of engaging attendees during their stay.
The Go Team app is powered by simple GPS technology which displays your team’s location on a tablet computer and directs you to various ‘treasure’ points on the map; when you arrive you have to perform a task, take funny pictures of each other or answer a piece of trivia to win points and beat the rival team.
The system even allows for live feedback from the organiser – who can be as rude as they like when assessing your attempts to rack up points.
“We anticipate that there are two applications for the technology,” says Jonathan Hazley, the Dunfermline-based company’s sales director.
“One is what we have been focusing on in terms of corporate team building but now we feel we are taking it to a new level with conference engagement, using it as a networking tool, using it as an opportunity to give customer feedback, question and answer sessions, publishing agendas, ordering food, and checking into hotels.”
