Game-based learning is gaining increasing momentum every day. Profounders is a Jordanian company that offers a set of training programs adopting this trend. Aligning with this, Orange Jordan organized an interactive session in collaboration with Profounders targeting 7 entrepreneurs of the 3rd season of Orange AI Incubator, co-funded by the Innovative Startups and SMEs Fund (ISSF), and designed in partnership with Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT). The session was aimed at enhancing the participants’ skills by benefitting from this modern training approach.

During the one-day session provided by the Trainer and Founder of Profounders, Samia Al Shaarawy, participants embarked upon an educational journey to elevate their skills in several areas namely leadership, speech and public speaking, negotiation, and problem-solving. The session contributed to enhancing teamwork and efforts to find solutions for society-related challenges.

The training model that Profounders adopts is a 75-minute, and game-based approach where 4 teams consisting of 12 players compete to found projects that provide innovative solutions to community-related challenges.

Commenting on this session, Orange Jordan emphasized that enabling entrepreneurs to share their expertise and knowledge with their peers forms an important pillar of the support that Orange is keen to provide startups with, leading to a more solid entrepreneurial scene on a national level.

Orange Jordan valued the innovative approach that Profounders adopts which perfectly aligns with Orange AI Incubator, that was established in the first place to enable startups to keep pace with the exponential development in the digital world thanks to AI.

The Profounders game has been implemented by 25 companies and organizations, with the participation of more than 500 people. It contributed to developing their skills in various arenas through taking on several community, professional, and other challenges.

It is worth mentioning that Orange AI Incubator is co-funded by ISSF and co-designed by PSUT.
