With over 2,500 initial units sold, Magnus Gyan is the only education technology firm operating in Brazil combining low-cost hardware and a wide-array of affordable educational software. To date, they have launched 2 successful pilot public sector programs, totaling 1,500 students and 2,100 teachers, and are partnering with the country’s leading English Language Learning institution.
