Why us

Why partners work with us

Here’s what our partners tell us matters most.

Affordable for every school

5 to 10 times cheaper than traditional STEAM kits, so public and private schools alike can equip a whole year group. That means more schools you can reach.

Curriculum mapping, done for you

We map the 100+ Academy lessons to your national curriculum and align them to CASEL, the UN SDGs, IB and ISTE, at no cost to you.

Teachers can run it themselves

3800+ teachers trained so far. After a 3-hour workshop, teachers run lessons on their own and train the teacher next door.

Easy to run competitions and events

Partners in Indonesia, Singapore and Vietnam run innovation challenges and maker fairs on the same kit their schools already own. Setup is quick and low-cost, and no special venue is needed.

AI lessons included

The Academy includes AI and machine learning lessons that run on the same board and chopsticks, with no specialist teacher needed.

Co-brand it as your own

Offer Stick ’Em with your own brand alongside ours, through the school network you already have. We also share a library of ready-made posters, social graphics and school-facing materials.

Getting started

How to get started

  1. Tell us about your market

    Your country, how many schools you reach today, and who would run the training.

  2. A kit and a call

    Order a single kit to build with yourself, then we talk it through. Every one of our partners started here.

  3. A small pilot

    A few schools, one training session, one term. Pilot sizes are flexible, and there is no territory commitment on either side.

  4. Grow together

    Once schools are reordering, we agree on scale, pricing and territory together.
