Dell India to host Enterprise Gaming Contest for Partners

 In order to provide a better understanding of its enterprise products amongst its channel partners while delivering a fun and engaging learning experience, Dell has announced the launch of its enterprise game "Destination Mars" for its Indian channel partners.

The interactive game for partners, named "Destination Mars" will run via Facebook and will test their knowledge of Dell enterprise solutions. The contest will run for a period of 15 days and at the end of the contest period Dell will reward the winners with attractive prizes. The game will roll out in the form of a contest starting on December 16, 2013 and ending on December 31, 2013.

Ajay Kaul, Director & General Manager, Global Commercial Channel, Dell India, said, "Destination Mars is a fun and entertaining way for channel partners to get acquainted with our enterprise offerings. It is also a non-intrusive and engaging way for us to strengthen our relationships with existing and prospective partners.  We are very excited about the launch of this game and hope that our partner community enjoy and benefit from it. The game provides an option to connect with a Dell solutions expert for more training modules and we are expecting a good response."

With over 2,000 partner relationships already in existence in the Indian market, Dell hopes to leverage the popularity of gaming and social media to generate further interest amongst existing and prospective partners in the industry.

Although the contest is only open for Dell-registered Commercial Channel Partners or entities engaged in IT Enterprise (Server or Storage or Networking) Products reselling/distribution business, the players can invite friends to play and earn more power (points) through referrals.
