NOVEMBER 16, 2020 9:00 AM ET

As an amazing conclusion of the Kickstart Innovation Program 2020 in which SkillGym has been selected as an innovative HR tech solution, the digital role-play platform announces the development of a proof-of-concept (POC) project with Migros, one of Switzerland’s most predominant companies.

Chiasso (TI, Switzerland) – During the last three months, SkillGym, a Swiss HR tech solution, has taken part in the Kickstart Innovation Program in Zurich (https://kickstart-innovation.com/). Delivered mainly remotely due to the pandemic, the program has allowed SkillGym to meet with executives of leading Swiss corporations and organizations (such as Migros, Swisscom, Coop, Die Mobiliar, AXA, Post Finance, Credit Suisse, and Nespresso), aiming to initiate innovation partnerships and pilot projects.

Within this program, SkillGym (https://www.skillgym.com) and Migros (https://www.migros.ch) have defined a common field for a POC Project to support the Klubschule Migros (https://www.klubschule.ch).

As part of the Migros Group, the Klubschule has offered a great variety of courses (more than 600) for the past 70 years and is the largest adult education institution in Switzerland. The school supports approximately 400,000 course participants each year through 50 locations throughout Switzerland, from Aarau to Zurich.

These two unique Swiss excellences will integrate the innovative Digital Role Play methodology developed by SkillGym into the Klubschule’s offering on leadership development with the aim of enriching the learning experience using the learning-by-doing approach.

“We are extremely proud and enthusiastic to start this collaboration with the Klubschule Migros. It will surely be a great ride leveraging the effectiveness of the open innovation approach in merging the disruptive energy of our HR tech venture with the solid experience of the predominant Swiss company that Migros is. And I’m sure this is only the beginning of a long-lasting relationship” declared Matteo Malatesta, Head of Business Design at SkillGym.
