Corporate orienteering case · 2024
Poly Fun Run Shanghai
The 2024 Poly Fun Run Shanghai combined 12 digital checkpoints, four on-site stations and a 120-minute course in one orienteering event.

At a glance
Poly Fun Run Shanghai placed company-culture content inside the activity rather than saving it for a separate presentation. Participants navigated 12 digital checkpoints and four on-site stations, answering questions and completing team photo missions along the way. The finish screen brought together time, distance and quiz performance.

Project facts
The event at a glance
01
Company culture became part of the course
Questions about Poly's history and brand appeared at specific points along the route. Participants had to reach the location before they could answer or begin the next mission, connecting the content to movement through the venue.
- Company-culture questions
- Team photo missions
- On-site singing and physical tasks
- Stations found through route clues
02
Digital missions and face-to-face activity worked together
The mobile experience handled the map, checkpoints, questions, photos and results. Staffed stations added direct team interaction. Both parts followed one completion rule: participants needed to finish the required checkpoints and return with the on-site energy markers within the time limit.
03
Results measured more than speed
The event recorded total time, distance and quiz performance. Awards could therefore recognize teams, individual results, pace, cultural knowledge and team photos, giving participants more than one way to contribute.
04
Where this approach fits
Anniversary programs, employee sports days and company-culture events can use a similar structure. Every new project still needs its own map, questions, capacity plan and safety arrangements.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How can company culture fit naturally into an orienteering event?
Tie each question to a place or mission and let it affect the participant's progress. Content that has no relationship to the route can feel like a survey added to a run.
Does a corporate orienteering event have to rank people only by speed?
No. This project combined time with quiz performance, team missions and on-site interaction, allowing different award categories.
Can another company reuse the Poly route and questions?
The operating structure can be adapted, but the map, route, company content, participant capacity and safety plan need to be prepared for each project.
