Laser Game Entreprise

What Laser Game Entreprise does

Laser Game Entreprise (legal entity: SAS Laser Game Entreprise, DBA: Laser Game Evolution®) is a French company founded in 1996 by Patrick Fournier in Grenoble that designs, manufactures, and commercializes proprietary 100% laser game equipment under the V3 technology platform. Its core technology, developed and patented by its in-house Laser Game Equipement® division, uses visible laser beams that directly deactivate opponent targets on contact, distinguishing it from infrared-based competitor systems. The product portfolio includes the V3 blaster and vest system with real-time color screens and configurable gameplay, internally designed multi-level labyrinth arenas with interactive modules, and CE-certified "totally harmless" equipment manufactured in France.

The company's commercial model combines a franchise/affiliation network with a small portfolio of directly operated centers. As of 2024, the Laser Game Evolution® network spans over 100 centers across nine countries (France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Canada, Morocco, and Tunisia), with FY2024 group revenue of €47.7 million and approximately 5.3 million players served. Independent franchisees — who contribute between €25,000 and over €100,000 in initial investment depending on surface area and location — operate centers under exclusive territorial protection and receive equipment, labyrinth design, training, and marketing support. The corporate parent employs approximately 15 people at its Vizille headquarters and manufacturing site, indicating a capital-light franchisor model with most operational employment distributed across franchisees (the network as a whole references 600+ employees).

End customers span two segments: B2C individual consumers (families, birthday parties, group outings) and B2B corporate clients (team building, seminars, private hire). Franchise investors form a third customer cohort on the supply side, acquiring the right to operate branded centers. The company holds a filed/pending patent on V3 technology and a registered trademark on the Laser Game Evolution® brand, and it positions itself as the #1 indoor laser game operator in France and Europe, leveraging 30 years of continuous operation and four hardware generations (V0 through V3) as core trust signals for both consumers and prospective franchisees.
