SmartTerm Expands into Africa with Acquisition of GreenBii’s School Management Business

Silicon Valley, July 24, 2024 — In a strategic move that marks its first expansion outside the Caribbean, SmartTerm Ltd, the fastest-growing and leading educational technology company in the Caribbean, has acquired GreenBii’s School Management Business. This acquisition will immediately onboard 17 schools in Nigeria, increasing SmartTerm’s total school count to over 1050 schools worldwide.

As part of this acquisition, SmartTerm will become the flagship school management solution in GreenBii’s app store, providing Nigerian schools with top-tier tools to manage their institutions and enhance their learning experiences. This partnership signifies a major milestone in SmartTerm’s mission to unlock the world’s human potential by delivering innovative educational solutions.

SmartTerm’s expansion into Africa builds on its remarkable success in the Caribbean. In St. Vincent and the Grenadines, SmartTerm implemented a comprehensive national education management solution that streamlined school operations and enhanced data collection across the country. This initiative laid the groundwork for scalable, data-driven educational improvements, showcasing SmartTerm’s ability to rapidly adapt and meet diverse educational needs.

Building on this foundation, SmartTerm launched its test prep solution, Tambrin, in Q1 2024. Tambrin played a pivotal role in the CPEA exam preparation in SVG, resulting in a 2% increase in the overall pass rate and improved quality of scores. The top five students in the country utilized Tambrin to prepare for their CPEA examinations, demonstrating the effectiveness of SmartTerm’s solutions in driving academic excellence.

With a proven track record of success, SmartTerm is poised to rapidly scale its solutions across the entire Caribbean, ensuring that schools and students throughout the region can benefit from state-of-the-art educational management and personalized learning tools.

Ayodele Pompey, CEO of SmartTerm, commented on the acquisition, “This expansion is a significant step in our mission to transform education globally. Africa will be one of the biggest contributors to the future global workforce. Many of the solutions to our most complex problems in technology, medicine, society, and the environment will come from the continent. We want to be a part of that story, so we are fully committed to empowering every learner and educator in Africa to reach their fullest potential. We’re convinced GreenBii is the right partner to do it with.”

Vincent Edigin, CEO of GreenBii, shared his enthusiasm: “We are thrilled to partner with SmartTerm, a company that shares our vision for innovative and effective educational solutions. The acquisition of this customer segment ensures that schools in Nigeria will benefit from SmartTerm’s best-in-class technology and expertise. Together, we will make a profound impact on education in Nigeria and across the continent.”

The partnership was finalized at Draper University’s campus in Silicon Valley, symbolizing the fusion of innovative minds and visionary leadership. SmartTerm’s mission to revolutionize education aligns seamlessly with GreenBii’s dedication to delivering exceptional solutions to its education customers. This partnership is poised to create a transformative impact on the educational landscape in Nigeria and set a precedent for future expansions.
