EdtechEdtech

The journey of Anyractive began as the founder and the CEO, Sunghyun Lim faced a problem he faced at work regularly. It was too often very difficult to communicate with other co-workers especially when exchanging technical information. He realized that collaborative visualization helps people work together and exchange information more efficiently, but most of the current display screens out there lack interactive capabilities. Mr. Lim founded Anyractive in order to solve these day-to-day problems at work or in educational settings by creating a device that can maximize communication with its proprietary technology. Anyractive's mission is to build a truly interactive world by providing their touch technology. With their core products and services, Anyractive believes that its offerings will help people collaborate and create in a way that has never been possible.
