How do you see the role of ICT in Education?
ICT definitely sees a clear path in the education segment. India is highly receptive to technology at every industry, and when technology innovations are aimed at providing ease, there is pure success to it. ICT has already begun in spreading its wings in the education segment by introducing some of the most innovative ideas for bringing education closer to learners. With the already emerging ideas of ICT in Education, such as, smart teaching aids, virtual class room and classboard, there can be seen immense scope for many more such IT innovations to be introduced.

How do you see the importance of tablets in education?
A tablet must not be just seen advancement to a laptop or desktop, but there’s a lot more to it. With its quality of being light-weight and ‘on the go’, a tablet can be your book, your sketch book, your blackboard, and even your classroom. There is a lot of scope for a tablet to show its importance in the education sector.

How does your solution integrate with today’s classrooms?
We are yet to define a package of solutions for the education segment, but we aim at bringing a complete innovation when we present our education tablets. This will be a true benefit for the students where the student will actually feel the importance of its My Buddy as much as his or her books.
