Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
SPROK is a research-based language learning game under development at Åbo Akademi University, designed to support smooth and quick integration of immigrant children into their new country’s cultural and linguistic environment.
The SPROK team targeted to map European markets to identify potential countries for commercializing the game. While the initial market for piloting the game is Finland, an opportunity to introduce the game in other countries that have a similar need for supporting immigrant children’s language development was seen. The client needed an in-depth understanding of the EdTech markets, competitors, and educational practices in each country. Sailer conducted a comprehensive market study, analysing the language learning and EdTech markets in six European countries. The study utilized a broad range of approaches: qualitative interviews, competitor analysis, and service design tools, which added depth and concreteness to the research. The results were presented in a visually impactful way using Sailer's service design and visual reporting methods. This approach helped the client understand the specific characteristics of each market and use the findings as a foundation for clear strategic decisions.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The SPROK team gained valuable insights into competitors, market environments, and a better understanding of how school systems and language education differ across countries. Through the research, the client was able to identify the key target markets with the greatest potential for language learning solutions like SPROK.
By utilizing the research results, SPROK’s strategy could be adjusted to align with the specific characteristics and needs of the target markets. Additionally, the insights generated by the study guided the further development of the SPROK game, enabling the creation of an even better learning experience.
