Africa’s EdTech Startup, Snapplify Recognised as a Key Player in the Global Higher Education Market
One of the top six Higher Education players globally, according to a new analysis on the global tertiary e-textbook and multimedia industry, is edtech business Snapplify.
The pandemic and, more broadly, the pressure on institutions to adopt digital tools and get ready for the Fourth Industrial Revolution have both contributed to Snapplify’s significant growth in the Higher Education industry.
Penny de la Plain, a higher education specialist at Snapplify, credits the company’s expansion to three things: its reliable technology, its solid collaborations with book merchants and publishers, and its top-notch support staff.
According to De la Plain, “Snapplify’s technology is built for education. It is easy to use and interacts with hundreds of LMSes, providing for a simpler, frictionless learning experience.”
In order to supply essential academic content to colleges, Snapplify has worked with hundreds of publishers. It also boasts the largest independent bookseller network in Africa. We’ve developed a one-stop store for books by collaborating closely with publishers and booksellers. According to De la Plain, institutions and their students may place orders for all of their hardcopy and digital textbooks through a single portal, eliminating the need to compare prices or coordinate with several providers.
A free online library is also included with the Snapplify Engage platform. For universities, colleges, and TVET institutions looking to expand their digital library and learning options for staff and students, the integrated platform has been a true game-changer.
The last element of success? Encouragement, says De la Plain. It might be challenging for many educational institutions to make the switch to digital tools. Without a doubt, a key factor in why more and more institutions are switching to Snapplify is their constant, hands-on support.
Snapplify is the top provider of higher education ebooks in Africa, with offices not only in the continent but also in Europe, the UK, and the US. It collaborates with the most prestigious universities and TVT institutions on the continent, all of which have a long history of supporting student book purchases.
