BINUS HR Tech Summit 2026: Exploring the Future of Game-Based Assessment with Level Up
Opening ceremony and inauguration of the BINUS HR Tech Summit 2026.
Technological developments continue to bring changes in how companies manage and develop talent. From recruitment and assessment to talent development, various tech-based solutions are now available to help companies gain more relevant insights regarding employee potential and competencies.
Seeing these developments, Level Up powered by Agate participated in the BINUS HR Tech Summit 2026 on September 23–24, 2026. At this event, Level Up powered by Agate introduced various game- and gamification-based solutions to support Human Resources needs, particularly in assessment and talent development processes.
Getting to Know Game-Based Assessment Firsthand
One of the main highlights at the Level Up booth was game-based assessment, an assessment approach that integrates game mechanics with the measurement of specific competencies and traits.
Unlike conventional assessments that generally use more formal question formats or simulations, game-based assessment delivers a more interactive experience. Participants complete various in-game challenges while the system gathers data to provide insights into specific aspects of the individual.
At the BINUS HR Tech Summit 2026, visitors not only received explanations about the concept, but could also directly try the game-based assessment experience through a free trial of Next Chapter Game Based Assessment.
