Digital Collaboration to #doDifferent
As the African proverb says, ‘It takes a village to raise a child,’ and in education, this is ever more pertinent. That’s why, this week we are looking at a #doDifferent company that is making a difference and increasing access to education worldwide.
Snapplify was created in South Africa, back in 2012, to address a gap in the digital publishing industry. They originally focussed on the South African education and digital content industries, but it has since grown and expanded into new markets across the world, with offices in South Africa, as well as in Nairobi, London, Amsterdam and New Jersey.
Snapplify offers mobile, digital publishing solutions that are changing the way students learn, by tackling the challenge a large percentage of students have - access to textbooks. Using this disruptive platform, users can now download eBooks without an Internet connection. Their mobile solution also allows content producers or distributors such as authors, artists, publishers, retailers and corporates to sell their content in custom-branded mobile applications.
Snapplify is at the forefront of Edtech solutions in Africa, and specialises in enabling digital learning for individuals and institutions via the largest digital educational marketplace in Africa. There are thousands of schools, colleges and universities that use Snapplify every day to teach, learn, and access educational content, as well as thousands of books and courses.
Not only are they aiding in digital educational material, but they are helping you by making it easier to purchase your child's textbooks via Snapplify Engage. If your child's school is using Snapplify Engage for prescribed book orders, you'll find everything your child needs in one place, so there's no need to search for individual books, no risk of purchasing the wrong one, and no start-of-term hassles.
As a socially-minded company, Snapplify is committed to supporting others and creating sustainable change, globally, through collaboration and innovation. Snapplify runs impact programmes through their Snapplify Foundation, as they believe that technology has a crucial role to play in increasing access to quality educational products and services.
They also aim to empower, inspire, and uplift teachers via Teacha!, which is the largest community of teachers in Africa. Snapplify’s technology is also used in other educational products to facilitate collaboration throughout the educational community.
So if you want to be a part of something bigger that is helping to #doDifferent in the lives of children and their educators, look no further than Snapplify.
