Business need
It is the only non-profit organization of its kind to provide a global platform to educate, develop, inspire and positively impact careers of emerging Asian leaders around the world and across various industries – business, technology, law, medicine, arts, science, politics, and non-profits.
Solution
We’ve developed the portal for distance learning where proteges can find specialists in their areas of interests and schedule sign up for a session. What is more, the specialist can also look for their future proteges. At the end, it is a win-win project for both parties.
Our customer is the non-profit educational organization dedicated to helping talented young Asian professionals unlock their potential and become great leaders.
- To develop software for connecting mentors and proteges all around the globe
- To make the integration with existing VoIP solutions
- To provide both established and young Asian professionals with a global platform for sharing stories and addressing unique challenges associated with leadership roles.
What was achieved:
- we’ve managed to improve the stability of the portal;
- expand the existing functionality and added a new one;
- mentor and protege can find each other on the portal in terms of interests, specializations, colloquial languages;
- they can reserve dates for communication, as well as choose a platform for communication (Skype, cocoa, mobile call or other means of communication).
