GET-IT is part of HP’s social investment strategy aimed at innovating teaching and learning to help young entrepreneurs in achieving success in their future careers. The program provides IT equipment and trainings.
The online Serious Game called Blossom Flowers, and developed technically by KTM Advance, enriches the GET-IT City portal.

Blossom is a management and role playing game, where the player manages and develops a business through the smart use of technologies. The player’s mission is to save, manage and develop a flower business, to increase turnover and to improve customer satisfaction. To achieve the mission, the player runs the plantation and the office, interacts with the clients in the market place and gets advice in the resource centre. The more the business grows, the more new situations occur and the more skills the player develops.
