Twin introduces science and technology concepts to children, then allows them to question, to be creative, to experiment, to learn & unlearn, and to be resilient. We provide 2 platforms: Robotics Kits and Digital Application.

Different concepts of Twin robotics kits consist of electronic modules that could easily be attached with magnets. The pieces are also LEGO-compatible.

Every kit has a set of readily available experiments to spark curiosity. The number of experiments is only limited by one’s creativity! Twin digital application consists of interdisciplinary courses that expose the kids to scientific concepts.

This platform also provides a community, where Twinners can share and celebrate their experiments and learn together. In the advanced stages, using patterns of the children from their digital journey, Twin will offer a customized learning path for each child.

The market for mobile apps and games has become a billion dollar market since Apple launched the iPhone in 2007.

There are now hundreds of thousands of developers who are looking to distribute their mobile applications to content hungry consumers. The market is growing quickly but there are still a few limiting factors that are holding back app developers and limiting their potential to make money.

For instance, distribution is still fairly limited and comes mainly from OEMs, operators and a few independent stores such as Amazon and Getjar. This means that stores in general are overcrowded and developers struggle to get visibility and make money.

Most App stores also lack good charging methods and pricing models which means that conversion rates suffer. As a result many developers have opted for free apps funded by advertising as a last option, but very few generate any substantial revenues from this..
