2014 Case: MaCom and new education
In 2014, we had the pleasure of working together with MaCom within the educational aspect of IT. MaCom was striving for information regarding how to extend their current platform, Lectio, to involve a broader segment of the market. ITCC helped MaCom get some substantial input on their current platform, and thus the winning team proposed an entire redesign of Lectio involving a new UI, partnerships with private teachers and more.
Excerpt:
“22 years ago a company called MaCom came into existence. Its founders were two Danish high school graduates, both of whom are still in charge. Today MaCom have become a small Danish software company consisting of around 20 employees, that specializes in system development and maintenance of their core software solutions.
Back then, in 1992 to be exact, these high-school entrepreneurs were fed up by the Danish educational system, where poor administration and inef cient communication standards between teacher and pupil was predominant. With this belief these two young high school graduates set out on a quest to change this, and not just for the educational environment! They were driven by a desire to understand the emerging technologies all around them and intrigued by the possibilities these new frontiers could offer for generations to come.”
