Yogome

Manolo Diaz, CEO
Since Yogome started the goal was clear, to help kids learn in a fun way with the help of technology.  All around the world educational levels are falling behind the fast social communication and technology growth, so besides of what they see in school kids need to develop skills and values to compete in a globalized environment.  That’s why we are developing educational games for iPads and browsers, so kids can be learning and discovering the world they live in instead of just killing zombies and blowing things up.  http://yogome.co // @yogomerocks
