Pharmaniaga Egames -Their First Employee Activation!

It’s no surprise that the esports phenomenon is widely spreading.

And when we had a sit down the Pharmaniaga Logistics team, they were just as thrilled as we are knowing that an egames team activity can be pulled off.

“It’s actually happening? Serious arhh!” said one of the staff there at the office.

Suddenly, it’s as though sparkles of hope glistened through their eyes and knowing how difficult it is to do events through these challenging pandemic hurdles, we started getting to work on delivering the event.

How did the event go you ask? Or more importantly, what games did they choose for their tournament? Read on as I share more on the event progress…

What is Pharmaniaga Egames About? -A Different Approach.

Imagine doing team building, but through games.

And not just any games, egames!

As it is a norm for any corporate companies to do regular team activities, it is quite rare to get companies to involve themselves in the digital sports world, let alone participate in one.

Normally, regular corporate team activities include things like badminton night, cinema day, bowling time, or CSR activities like a contest to plat the most trees.

You know, the usual.

But for this month’s employee activity, we worked on something different – Introducing Pharmaniaga egames!

An employee activation programme aimed at breaking the ice between departments, challenging strategizing skills at the same time exciting emotions of team spirit amongst members!

It’s their first ever esports event which, after this first success, enticed them into crating a bigger esports event next year.

The Game Plan 

It is absolutely an amazing transition when you think of it.

On a normal day, the Pharmaniaga Logistics team are a force to be reckoned with as one of the big giants in the corporate world but when it comes to esports, you can see how smooth the whole team transitioned into gamers as they try to be best at their very own tournament.

Pharmaniaga Egames consisted of main tournaments of PUBG Mobile and FIFA 20, with F1 2019, Beat Saber, and Tekken 7 as mini-challenges.

That’s the stream!

Imagine the event day itself, the amount of energy everyone had was crazy positive, especially the few days before as the excitement was building up.

Our team came in extra early at 7am for setup and preparations for the event and to our surprise, there were there sharpening their skills right before the tournament!

The ambience during the event day was filled with positive energy and excitement as everyone was having a nice day, we can see their stress of working fading away through their smiles as they were enjoying their moments while playing games with their work colleagues.

It is those little things like this that made their day and of course, made our days as well as we too were filled with the same aura that reminded us why we chose this field of expertise.

As they say, positive aura is infectious and affects everyone around! 😀

Now that we’ve covered the event part, I’m sure you’re wondering what they do…

What is Pharmaniaga Logistics about? -A Closer Look.

The company distributes prescription medicine, proprietary medicine, toiletries as well as offering hospital equipping services, equipment planning, and coordinating delivery schedule.

Talk about efficiency!

We had a nice meetup with their team, even managed to share some business ideas on the next event and we’re certainly looking forward to working with them in the near future.

Wish us luck gais!

Final Word

Slowly but surely, it’s apparent now that companies adopt the esports culture among its employees to great effect.

This has become a promising precedent to how esports can be integrated with corporate culture as a form of team building, similar to that of traditional sports and other interests and our event today is living proof of that.

As organizing esports events is our passion, it’s surely a nice change of pace for us to take this opportunity to create more exciting programs targeted to that in the near future.

Thanks for reading guys, until next time!
