Internet - Milan, Lombardy, Italy
Oilproject is the largest Italian online school. Every month more than one million students revise, integrate and deepen what has been done in class by studying the 5500 lessons available online for free: from Shakespeare to derivatives, from Dante to Chemistry. From September 2015, Oilproject will launch a new platform abroad. The targets are the teachers, not just the students. The goal is ambitious: change the way teaching is instructed and carried out in schools. This will be done by making teaching more digital, of course, but above all, more fun, effective and interactive (because becoming digital is only a means to the end). Oilproject Srl – a startup funded by Club Digitale and Telecom Italy Ventures - is based in Milan in a young, informal and stimulating environment. It involves 10 people fulltime (average age: 28 years old) and 50 teachers who work together to create the archive of educational content.
