Fundación Telefónica today launched the new Educared Global Portal, a project led and designed by Silicon Artists CEO Simon Birrell. The new portal (www.educared.org) is the result of a massive two-year restructuring and consolidation of dozens of portals and technological platforms across many countries, that unifies Telefonica’s educational initiatives in Spain and Latin America. The portal was officially launched during a 30 minute keynote presentation by Simon Birrell at the Fifth EducaRed Congress in Madrid before an audience of over 2000 teachers, educational specialists and Telefonica executives.
Silicon Artists worked with a hand-picked team to design an advanced technological platform and intuitive user experience for the new portal, and worked with Fundación Telefónica and developers Alvantia to convert the design into reality. Silicon Artists has been intimately involved with the EducaRed initiative for the last ten years
