The new investment will help the startup to accelerate its overseas expansion across the world with a focus on the United States, the country with the highest percentage of educators using one-to-one computing (1:1) computing. The company has evolved from a point solution into a comprehensive student engagement platform that has proven to be incredibly sticky,”said Vivi founder and executive chairman, Dr. Lior Rauchberger.“Our next big goal is to be in a million classrooms as soon as possible and partnering with Quad will certainly speed that up,” he said. Using Vivi, tutors can display their teaching material including videos and exercises to students, who then have the ability to annotate the content with their own notes on their own devices. So far, Vivi is in 12 countries spanning Australia, Europe, Middle East, South East Asia and the Americas.
