In his session, Vikas also suggested few tools that can help users leverage these trends.

At the Learning Technologies expo, many users flocked together at the Raptivity booth. The Raptivity team present at the booth discussed new ideas with them, tried to understand their requirements and get their feedback. The channel partners of Raptivity also had their booths at the conference. The great synergy between channel partners and the Raptivity team helped the users in receiving answers to their technical questions about Raptivity, tips and some innovative ideas about the effective use of Raptivity.

At the Training 2010 Conference in San Diego, Janhavi Padture, Director of Strategy, Research and Analysis at Harbinger Group spoke about ‘Developing Next Generation Interactive Learning – Trends and Practices’.

The Raptivity booth at ASTD Techknowledge 2010 constantly drew conference participants. The numbers visiting the booth never dwindled even once throughout the duration of the conference. After looking at the wide variety of Raptivity games, simulations, video and 3D interactions, the customers and users expressed their heartfelt appreciation to the team for pressing forward with their innovative ideas.

“We are always committed to reaching out to our customers. Since they are spread over many countries, it is not always possible to meet them personally. Such tradeshows provide us great opportunity to have face-to-face meetings with many of them and understand their needs. We look forward to participate in more such events”, said Seema Chaudhary, President, Harbinger Knowledge Products Inc.
