Lix Technologies — "At Lix, we’re passionate about learning. Not that we’re a bunch of nerds; we’re just all students – currently or formerly enrolled. Our fairly young team is a blend of experienced heads and raw minds who all agree, that the coffee brewer is the most appreciated piece of machinery at our office. We also share a common feeling that studyingis too troublesome: textbooks are heavy weight, a financial horror, time-consuming to acquire, and not in sync with technology. That’s why Lix happened.Besides solving the practical aspects mentioned just before, we envision Lix as the game changer within learning platforms.Students should have the best possible conditions for learning. So should publishers who convey the learning material, the professors who pick out the curriculum, and the enterprises who educate their trainees. While we fuel our engines with ambition and vision, we’re fortunate to have a group of advisors and investors on board to help Lix make the greatest impact possible."
