**About SKIDOS Vision, Mission & Culture**

We want to build the world’s leading brand for developing 21st Century skills among families with kids. Our mission is to help kids become lifelong, confident and happy learners. We believe it is more important NOW than ever before for kids to be equipped with both fundamental academic skills (Literacy & Numeracy) & non-academic skills (e.g. Critical thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, Communication, Information, Media & Tech literacy, Leadership & social skills, Initiative & Productivity). These skills are important for them to be well prepared for their adult life to achieve confidence, happiness & contentment while helping to advance the human race.

Our core product is a SDK which helps us embed learning content in great games. We offer parents a subscription service which allows them to access all the games and learning content. Currently we have 70+ games available across on Apple and Google Play Store.

We are a rapidly growing scale-up with a very ambitious and impactful mission, backed by leading VC’s, Angel investors and the Danish Growth fund.

At SKIDOS, we believe in a positive work environment where you feel happy & content while working on something which is truly meaningful and impactful. We respect work-life balance and have flexible working hours. We do not believe in micro-management but instead believe in creating an environment to help you learn and shine. We love people who have something to say, and we listen.
