SOWISO, an edtech software spin-out from the Eindhoven University of Technology, receives backing from software developer WoodWing.
Software developer WoodWing Software has made an undisclosed investment in Eindhoven University of Technology spin-out SOWISO.
WoodWing made its investment in the Netherlands-based SOWISO through its parent company WoodWing Holding.
SOWISO is developing a cloud-based e-learning platform which it plans to use to host massive open online courses (MOOCs) on. The platform is already in use at the University of Amsterdam, the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, the Amsterdam General Hospital, publishing company De Boeck, and more.
Marc Habbema, one of the founders of SOWISO, said: “This strategic partnership will help SOWISO to accelerate its business, both domestically and across the border. We are eager to expand so that students and teachers worldwide can benefit from our advanced e-learning technology for the exact sciences. We are looking forward to the future with WoodWing.”
