Company Summary

We are building an interactive web application that reinforces math and literary skills to children through sports content. The revenue streams for this business will come by selling subscriptions directly to parents, licensing content to schools, selling a sponsorship of the application within FTC and COPPA regulations, and providing unique educational content to children’s camps and tutoring programs.
