Project Description
UniMS, because education matters
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”-said Nelson Mandela and we believe education should be the only weapon our children put hands on.
We all put our efforts into easing our children future: parents, teachers, university staff, etc. working and collaborating together for the sole purpose of a better education for our children…. UniMS does just that: a unified software platform that integrates all these components in one big ecosystem, making collaboration easier, communication simpler and overall education a lot more efficient.
