Edtech company 'Davida Co., Ltd. (CEO Eunseung Lee)' announced on the 24th that it has been selected for the '2nd Seoul Fintech Lab' operated by the Seoul Metropolitan Government. This selection is significant in that Davida is expanding its business beyond the Edtech field to the Fintech field and is developing innovative financial technologies.
Davida won the Innovation Award at CES 2024 for 'Genie Class' and 'Genie Pen', and is adding new value to the fintech industry based on this technology. In particular, Davida is developing a solution that can enter the personal check market, strengthening financial security and authentication technology, and is pioneering a new market that combines edutech and fintech through a virtual currency mining reward system utilizing the Genie Pen.
◆ Fintech innovation based on edutech
Davida is combining existing financial and educational systems to create new financial services that utilize users’ handwriting data. As a representative example, it recently registered a patent that allows students to receive virtual currency compensation for the time they spend studying through analysis of learning data using Genie Pen. This is an innovative approach that has not been seen in the existing fintech market, and it financializes educational activities to enable students to receive economic incentives.
In addition, Davida is providing a new security solution that combines signature and authentication technologies in the personal check market in the US, Canada, and the UK. To solve the existing check forgery and fraud problems, it is developing a forgery prevention and authentication system using Genie Pen and AI technology, and through this, it is promoting the digitalization of traditional financial methods.
