Building EdTech experiences: Remo Gettini takes on CTO role at Twinkl Educational Publishing
Remo Gettini is taking on a new role as Chief Technology Officer at Twinkl Educational Publishing, which provides access to a range of teaching, planning and assessment materials to support learning.
His CV includes stints at World of Boks Group (also as CTO), and Depop (as Chief Technology and Data Officer).
In a LinkedIn post, he said: “As a father to a teenager, I see every day how important, and sometimes tough, learning can be. And as a former teacher, I have been on the other side too, trying to support students in a system that did not always make it easy.”
“That is why Twinkl’s mission - to help those who teach - resonates so strongly with me. I am not here just to build EdTech experiences, but also to deliver solutions that genuinely support learners, educators and families. This work matters to me on every level. Exciting times ahead!
Founded in 2010 by husband and wife team Jonathan and Susie Seaton, UK-based Twinkl currently serves more than six million customers around the world, offering over 1.5 million resources via its website, with new content added daily. These range from classroom content and assessments, to AI tools and augmented reality games.
Utilised in over 190 countries and regions, including primary and secondary school teachers, nursery workers and parents, it is now seeking to expand its global footprint.
