News @ Zurka

This year Zurka Interactive celebrated Halloween with a bang! Our office participated with the wonderful people from 1Spatial and Upskill in a costume potluck party. We enjoyed delicious food and mingling with the other people at ZWHQ and we are looking forward to the Ugly Sweater Holiday Chili Cookoff soon!

Zurka is proud to announce the launch of the Studio Auroras website. The site is an exposition of and memorial to the work of the artist Ariane Hafizi. It displays more than 100 of her works including drawings, paintings, murals and prints. Developed by Zurka, the design is based on unfinished mockups created by Hafizi herself.

Congratulations to the Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH) for winning an ASAE Gold Circle Award for convention marketing. Gavilan and Associates worked with SSH on the entire campaign. Having worked with Gavilan in the past, we’re not the least bit surprised at this impressive success. We’re proud to say that Zurka was involved too. Gavilan brought Zurka in to help with the creation of the IMSH 2017 website. IMSH is the largest and most important show in the healthcare simulation industry.

What is sometimes referred to as Zurka World Headquarters (ZWHQ) or Zurka Tower (ZT) has now moved from the town of Vienna to the Tysons Corner area. Our new office better accommodates our growing team and is within walking distance of the silver line metro stop Spring Hill Metro. For the building's owner and developer, MRP Realty, it represents a new concept where 10 suites on two floors share common amenities such as conference rooms, lounge areas and cold brew coffee. Additionally, MRP hosts various speakers and events to bring tenants from different companies together and to also foster a sense of community within the space.

Zurka Interactive is currently a prime contractor for Seaport-e on the National Capital Zone (2). We're excited to be able to support customers through this contract vehicle.

In 2002, the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) promulgated Seapower 21, a framework for aligning, organizing and integrating the U.S. Navy to meet the wide variety of challenges that lay ahead. The CNO called upon the entire Navy to find ways to become more efficient and effective. To meet Seapower 21 objectives and to increase efficiency, the NAVSEA Warfare Centers established the Seaport Enhanced (Seaport-e) Multiple Award Contract (MAC) vehicle, using a web-based, e-business procurement portal to facilitate performance-based service acquisition, leverage buying power, improve business intelligence and reduce cycle time.
