Draft:Twin Science

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:NCORP) but presently it is not clear that it does.
    As you may know, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’. In short, "notability" requires reliable sources about the subject, rather than by the subject.
    Please note that many of the references would appear to be from sources that are NOT considered reliable for establishing notability and should be removed (including blogs, company websites, press releases, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Spotify etc).
    Please note that many of the references are not formatted correctly (see Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor and Wikipedia’s Manual of Style for help).
    Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like an advertorial, which Wikipedia is not; and contains prose that is not of a standard appropriate for an encyclopaedia (also see WP:PEACOCK).
    The draft does not appear to show that the subject has any notability beyond the average coverage in trade publications for similar corporations (see WP:ROTM).
    Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being the subject (see WP:AUTOBIO) or being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link).
    Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page. It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject.
    It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:NCORP criteria #3, because XXXXX").
    Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page, including the name of the draft page, and I would be happy to reassess. Cabrils (talk) 01:10, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

Twin Science (legally Twin Science & Robotics) is a United Kingdom-based educational technology company that develops science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning solutions for children aged 6–14. Its products combine artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and sustainability education aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The company has received international recognition, including winning the UK Government’s Made in the UK, Sold to the World Award in 2025 and multiple edtech industry awards.

History

[edit]

Twin Science originated as a social responsibility initiative within the Turkish non-governmental organization Young Guru Academy (YGA), where volunteers delivered STEM workshops in underprivileged communities. In 2024, the company secured £1.25 million in investment funding to expand its educational technology offerings internationally, backed by investors such as Mindstone Learning, Earth VC, and WePlay Ventures.

Programs and Methodology

[edit]

STEM for Sustainability

The company promotes a learning framework called STEM for Sustainability (S4S), which integrates STEM subjects with sustainability education. Students work on applied projects such as earthquake detection systems, sustainable farming prototypes, accessibility devices like smart canes, and ocean-cleaning robots. These activities are intended to combine scientific knowledge with social awareness and sustainability goals.

Products and Solutions

[edit]

Educator Portal – A digital library of lesson plans, interactive videos, and AI-based planning tools aligned with curricula such as IGCSE, IB, and US standards.
