Our mission

Our ambition is to offer Cameroon and the whole Central Africa the first intelligent school management platform for primary, secondary and higher education.

To achieve this, we have decided to launch the Smart School Management Platform with our world leading partner Orell www.skool.com

The platform offers the education sector three products that cover the entire vertical industry of education

  1. eko as an intelligent school management system www.eko.skool.com
  2. etalk as an e-learning system www.etalk.skool.com
  3. tall as a learning system or language laboratory www.tall.skool.com

In order to enable this industry to achieve a digital transformation, we have partnered with Samaya Finance Sarl FINTECH, a leading provider of digital financial solutions and services www.saamafinance.com

In 2017, more than 80% of schools were without basic management information systems and more than 60% had no IT tools. There is a good reason for this: Lack of budget

  • Very high cost of IT equipment
  • Very high costs of automation solutions for a school institution
  • Very high costs of managing IT projects
  • Lack of technical resources
  • Lack of secure and transparent payment methods
  • Massive presence of (software) scammers and rather limited functionality of solutions

Many schools have been disappointed either by scammers, illusionary sellers or providers of offers unsuited to their needs
On the financial side, our partner Samaya Finance Sarl will allow schools, students and parents to pay and receive money wherever and whenever they want, day or night
Parents will no longer spend hours queuing to pay school fees in cash.
