Zoom Video Communications has chosen oktopi as the first EdTech partner in the region to take the live online classroom experience worldwide.

The partnership is the first of its kind in the field, as oktopi is the first EdTech company in the region to be partnering with Zoom. The collaboration provides oktopi users the ability to use all of Zoom’s features to create a customized live class experience, from live video communication to collaborative features such as breakout rooms, polls, reactions, and chat, within the oktopi.ai platform, to increase and improve the way educators interact with their students.

oktopi has integrated the Zoom functionality and built a layer of advanced analytics on top of it, so teachers can better understand how live sessions impact the learning journey of each student in an easy and smart way and personalize teaching methods accordingly.

Sam Tayan, Head of Zoom in the Middle East region said “Video conferencing and collaboration has been a reality and a growing market for years and has seen a rapid increase due to the pandemic, especially within the education sector. The Middle East is seeing an increased adoption of digital transformation, and innovation is key in a fast-evolving industry. We are very excited to be collaborating with oktopi as our first EdTech partner in the region to create a personalized teaching experience which will shape the future of education and bring many interesting possibilities.”
