What if the most iconic games from the world’s most-watched TV series became the engine of a corporate team building day? With our Squid Game format, you’ll find out. Over 2.5 hours of high-stakes challenges — reimagined in a fun, safe and fully professional key — participants live an experience they won’t soon forget. Colleagues become allies, rivals and accomplices. All in the same afternoon.
The Challenge: Constructive Competition Inspired by the Series
Inspired by the iconic Korean TV series that took the world by storm, TeamBuilding.it’s corporate Squid Game format reinterprets its symbolic elimination rounds in a safe, inclusive play environment. No real eliminations, no negative pressure — just the adrenaline rush of overcoming each challenge through creativity, collaboration and determination.
The challenges are designed to test real, transferable skills: trust within the group, individual resilience, problem solving under pressure and stress management. This is not just a game — it’s a collective emotional journey in which every team truly gets to know itself.
The Challenges: What to Expect During the Event
The format unfolds as a sequence of challenges inspired by the series’ visual and narrative universe, carefully reimagined to ensure maximum fun and safety. Each challenge is structured to stimulate different group dynamics: some can only be won through collaboration, others hinge on individual composure under pressure, and others require collective strategy.
The result is an experience that flies by — 2.5 hours pass in the blink of an eye — yet leaves a lasting mark on the group. The narrative tension of the series becomes the emotional glue that brings people together, breaking down the barriers typical of the workplace and creating genuine connections.
Why It Works: The Value of Experiential Team Building
With 22 years of experience and over 130 original formats, at TeamBuilding.it we know that high-impact emotional experiences are the ones that produce the most lasting changes within teams. The Squid Game format leverages precisely this mechanism: identification with a powerful narrative universe — the series — to lower defences, increase engagement and unleash creative energies that often lie dormant in everyday working life.
Playing together, even competitively, builds mutual trust, improves informal communication and strengthens the sense of belonging to the group. All effects that are measurable in the short and medium term.
How to Organise Your Corporate Squid Game
The format is available in both Indoor and Outdoor versions, adaptable to corporate spaces, outdoor venues, resorts and hospitality facilities. It is particularly suited to young, dynamic teams open to out-of-the-ordinary experiences, though the surprise factor works on any audience.
TeamBuilding.it operates from offices in Rome and Milan and can reach any destination across Italy. Every event is designed together with the client to ensure the format integrates perfectly with the company’s objectives and team culture.
