ARpedia is Woongjin ThinkBig's flagship global target product, having won the CES Innovation Award for two consecutive years. It is a next-generation learning solution that provides users with a three-dimensional reading experience by implementing characters and illustrations from books using augmented reality technology.
Starting with this contract, Studio A will distribute ARpedia in the Greater China region, including Taiwan?a key hub where it has already supplied educational devices to over 4,000 schools?as well as China, Hong Kong, and Macau. The strategy is to first supply the product to public education sites such as schools and learning centers in these areas, and later expand business through B2C (business-to-consumer) channels like device shops.
Woongjin ThinkBig plans to accelerate the global expansion of ARpedia based on this export contract. While entering the Greater China market steadily, it aims to expand sales channels mainly in Asian regions with large student populations and high educational enthusiasm, such as Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, and India.
