MERLION Creative Companies Club’s qualification session held in Chita was supported by Acer, ASUS, Brother, Intel, Samsung
On September 16, a regular meeting of MERLION partners was hosted in Chita as part of the Creative Companies Club project. World IT leaders, - Acer, ASUS, Brother, Intel and Samsung – supported the event. Since Chita doesn’t see such events very often, the decision by coordinators to host the session here was met with great enthusiasm.
The Creative Companies Club session opened with the traditional official part. The first speakers were Elena Shatalova and Kirill Kazakov, MERLION business development managers, who shared the latest company news with the partners. Afterwards, vendor representatives took the floor:
The Creative Companies Club’s seventh qualification stage in Chita assembled 6 teams: Different Us, Che Guevara’s Comrades, Green Tea, Slavic Chatterboxes, 2D3M and Sibaam Maabis. The game tested the players’ wit with various problems. For instance, they had to come up with the names of famous brothers, song lyrics containing the word “star”, derive new words from “processor” and solve logical puzzles. The partners’ creative and associative thinking was put to good use in decoding the ASUS acronym in a new way and remaking a song dedicated to the vendors.
Slavic Chatterboxes, thanks to its will to win, topped the podium with 86 points. Green Tea passed the intellectual gauntlet well, but finished a little behind with 83 points. The third place in the intellectual/creative contest went to 2D3M, 79 points.
The players’ thinking efforts were rewarded accordingly. The top three received memorabilia, while the winners were solemnly awarded the Creative Companies Club cake, which, by tradition, they face-plunged into. The leaders also received the precious ticket to the Moscow grand finals.
