Innovation Management Seminar
After several years of development at the CNAM (Conservatoire national des Arts et Métiers), the serious game “Rêves de vélo” (Dreams of Cycling) was launched in May 2025 on the France Université Numérique platform. It takes place at the turn of the 1860s, during the emergence of the velocipede, the precursor to the modern bicycle, with France as the pioneering country. Through an interactive comic strip, each player takes on the role of three characters with contrasting profiles who experience adventures in a reconstructed historical environment. A serious game does not just simulate reality: it creates situations for experimentation, decision-making, and critical thinking, putting players in the position of innovators. The history of the bicycle allows us to explore the multiple dimensions (technical, organizational, economic, social, legal, etc.) of an innovative process. Gilles Garel and Loïc Petitgirard will present the game’s design and how the playful experience can be used to teach innovation.
