How Gaming is Influencing and Shaping Technology in Business
In recent years, the use of gaming technology in business processes has been one of the
emerging trends. This paper aims to research and analyze the effects of the gaming concept on
the current and future development of technologies in the logistics sector. Some areas in which
gaming technology is being applied include the application of game technology include
Gamification, Simulation training, and virtual reality. Given the trends, challenges, and benefits
highlighted above from the case and academic studies included in this paper, gaming
technology's growth in business is undeniable.
The Strategic Use of Fun and Games in Business
Business individuals have started using the principles of game design in places where
they are not developing games, a process known as gamification. This encourages employees in
the production process, calls for higher production standards, and enhances customer interaction.
So, by using such elements as points, leaderboards, and rewards, organizations can introduce
more competitiveness. According to the Growth Engineering (2021) report, the global
gamification market had a growth projection of $9.1 billion in 2020. This project is expected to
increase to $30.7 billion by 2025, representing a compound growth rate of 27.4%. According to
the projection, North America will likely continue to lead in the gamification market through the
dominance of mobile internet users. The projection is also shown in Figure 1 below:

Primary research on the usage of gamification shows that it has the potential to improve
motivation and increase team member performance. The study also showed that applying game
mechanics directly to people's tasks has a positive effect, making people more attentive and
eager and more effective and efficient at work (Grijalva et al., 2022). For instance, in the supply
chain sector, employees can be engaged in a competition where enslaved people in a particular
organization's warehouse are featured as spaces and tasks in that warehouse as levels; this
motivates the employees to work harder and make fewer errors. Figure 1 below shows the
correlation between the three principles representing the gamification process and how each
