Shape Robotics announced a new strategic distribution agreement with CampuStore Italy's foremost EdTech provider and the main e-commerce platform for education. The collaboration signifies a major milestone in Shape Robotics' expansion into the Italian market, leveraging CampuStore's extensive network in the educational sector. CampuStore has been a key player in the Italian education sector since 1994.

With over 40,000 clients, including more than 7,700 schools and 800 universities, their impact is widespread. The collaboration comes at a time when Italy is heavily investing in education technology. The country leads in the EU for the amount of Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) funds used for education, with 22 billion Euros dedicated to this area.

This investment represents almost half of the total EUR 46 billion allocated for education by the EU under the RRF. With a focus on STEAM labs and digital education, 30% of these funds are aimed at enhancing technology usage in classrooms. CampuStore's initial order with Shape Robotics is set at EUR 100,000. The partnership between Shape Robotics and CampuStore marks a significant leap forward in the integration of advanced robotics technology within Italy's educational system.

This collaboration is more than a business alignment; it represents a shared vision for revolutionising learning experiences and preparing future generations for a technology-driven world.
