Ahmed Hossam - Reshaping Gamification in the Middle East

Aug 26, 2017

Organizations across the Middle East have used gamification over the past few years to address lack of user engagement within their organizations and the marketplace.

And just as businesses in the U.S. and Europe are using gamification to build community, clarify objectives, and motivate teams, organizations across the Middle East are reaping the rewards of these gamified programs.

In this episode, Ahmed and I explore:

  • A brief analysis of Gamification in Middle East
  • The differences in designing Gamification in different cultures
  • The reshaping  of the Gamification industry in the Middle East
