Our story

Back in 2017, our founder Dr. Leo had a challenging time teaching programming in a coding class to 100 students. With inaccessible teaching tools, individual technical problems and incompatible pace of learning, Dr. Leo struggled and sweated his way through the lesson. Inevitably, only a handful of students managed to follow, given the limited class time. The experience inspired and propelled Dr. Leo to establish Una Technologies Limited (formerly known as MagiCube Limited). With the help of his team, Dr. Leo developed a cloud-based real-time interactive education platform, Una, which means ‘together’ in Latin. As the name suggests, Dr. Leo wishes to bring teachers and students together into a fun and interactive process of learning.
