Summary: 
The Russian company is developing software and robots for educational activities at schools and universities. They have developed a laboratory and robot platform, which allows the students to design, implement and programme robots, so they can explore and learn about physics and robotics. The company is looking for partners under a distribution services agreement.
Description: 
The Russian company is specializing in software development and robotics for teaching programming basics among schoolchildren and university students. The company was founded in 2007 in St. Petersburg. The main projects of the company are: 1. A robotic kit is a modular system that can be changed at its discretion. There are magnetic platforms on it so that children can mount different sensors themselves: photoresistors, touch sensors, lines, and any others. 2. A laboratory, which consists of a board with sensors and programmable sensors, is packaged in a strong transparent cartridge so that children can see the contents and understand the microelectronic part. 3. A 3D mini printer, the child will draw a model, and the 3D printer will turn it into a real three-dimensional plastic object. The manufacture of 3D-model uses a safe biodegradable plastic PLA, made from vegetable raw materials. 4. A circuitry set is needed for learning the basics of electronics. The set consists of various electronic components that are easily connected to the Arduino microcontroller. 5. A franchise of robotics club for children, all-season business model, support for entrepreneurs, recognizable trademark, educational materials and advanced training courses for teachers. Program for ages from 5 to 15 years. 6. A turnkey robotics class for schools and private training centres. It consists of hardware, software, as well as educational materials for teaching children programming and robotics. Program for ages from 5 to 15 years. The robotic kit is built around a microcontroller and the kit includes 1 LED (flashlight), 1 light sensor, 1 touch sensor, 1 proximity sensor, and 2 line sensors. Sensor modules are magnetic-mount, allowing fast and easy reconfiguration and customization of the robot. Up to 5 sensors can be attached to the platform simultaneously. It is reliable and designed to work under tough conditions. The user interface gives a visual representation of the designed program, placing each command in a single coloured block, highlighting them as the command is being executed. The company is interested in finding partners in the sphere of wholesale and retail trade of electronic devices and educational programs to conclude a distribution services agreement for obtaining robotic kits, produced by the Russian company for further distribution into foreign markets. The Russian company is ready to organize transportation, customs services and deliver products to potential partners. The partner is supposed to organize sales of the products into foreign markets. The expected result is entering into new markets, finding reliable partners and expanding the geography of sale.
Type (e.g. company, R&D institution…), field of industry and Role of Partner Sought: 
Type: SMEs, large companies. Sphere: wholesale and retail of electronic devices and educational programs. Role: to obtain the company’s products for further distribution on the foreign markets. Under the distribution agreement, the Russian company will supply the necessary equipment to the partner for the subsequent sale. The company is ready to provide its partner with the necessary products. The partner, in turn, must provide the geography of product distribution, relevant documentation and information.
