Being immersed in the educational environment, as entrepreneurs and as parents with young children, we have faced the lack of innovative educational systems in our community, which are not up to the demands and needs of the new generations. We know that Finnish education has been a world reference in the last 10 years, so we took on the task of looking for a franchise that would provide us a competitive option to be able to replicate it successfully in our country. That is how we found SISU, an educational franchise with world-class academic support. We are very excited to start this adventure with the experts.
