BemyVega is a Spanish EdTech company developing hardware and software to enhance learning experiences, primarily for individuals with disabilities. The company was founded in 2021 by Antonio Sánchez Kaiser, a university professor, and Mónica Hernández, a teacher, along with Maria Dolores Sánchez. The inspiration behind BemyVega was personal; the founders' daughter, Vega, was born with oculocutaneous albinism, which affects her vision, motivating them to create a solution to ensure she and others could access education without barriers.
The company's core business revolves around creating inclusive virtual classrooms and learning environments. Its technology allows for the real-time transmission of up to four video streams—capturing the speaker, whiteboard, and digital presentations—to a student's personal device, such as a tablet or computer. This enables users to zoom in, pause, and review content as needed. The platform also provides real-time audio transcription. BemyVega's product suite includes physical devices like the 'Vega Compact' and 'Vega Lite', as well as a web accessibility widget that adapts online content for users with challenges like ADHD, dyslexia, and color blindness. The business model is transitioning towards a global Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering to scale its solutions.
Financially, BemyVega has secured significant backing. By September 2023, it had raised over €900,000, including a €641,000 funding round from investors like Eoniq Mediterranean Sede Fund I FCRE, Tokavi Activos, and Áurica Emprende. The company has also participated in prestigious accelerator programs such as Lanzadera and Wayra's 'Acelera', and has formed strategic alliances with major corporations including Telefónica, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft. These partnerships are aimed at expanding its market presence across Spain and Latin America. BemyVega has received multiple awards, including the EmprendeXXI awards from Caixabank and was a finalist in the Global EdTech Startups Awards (GESAwards).
