(1888PressRelease) April 09, 2016 - BOSTON - Cambridge Innovations (CI), launched by Cambridge Technology Enterprises (NSE: CTE; BSE: 532801), a technology services leader focused on the convergence of big data and cloud, today announced an investment in Ourly.help, the only service platform for kids to learn about money and earn money from those they know.

Cambridge Innovations has partnered with Ourly.help to develop its state-of-the-art technology platform and help increase its user base of children and parents in new markets. Ourly.help is the latest addition to CI's expanding investment portfolio of companies which includes RoadZen, Causemo, Authess, MyCrowd and Anthill Ventures. Seeking to invest in startups that leverage the power of big data and cloud, CI has recognized the potential of Ourly.help to disrupt the way 43 million U.S. teens and tweens learn to earn money from their parents, friends and community. The startup has created an auto-renewing 8-week program that gives to children personal and professional skills and to parents the transparency and means to empower their kids with real-world, financial know-how.

"Cambridge Innovations brings not only the financial backing needed to help us change the way children perform service learning. The CI team also has invaluable technical understanding and capabilities that will extend our reach and enhance our offerings to users, said John Malone, CEO of Ourly.help. "36 U.S. communities asked to engage in our pilot program; this exceeded expected participation by 620 percent. Clearly, a new model of helping parents help their children learn and earn money is needed. We are pleased that CI recognizes the market need and will help us achieve our vision."

Commenting on the recent investment, Aashish Kalra, Chairman of Cambridge Technology Enterprises said, "We are delighted to partner with Ourly.help. In the U.S. alone, teens spend an average of $5,000 a year of their parents' money. Ourly.help wants to create a better way for children to share in the work required for those earnings, as well as to begin developing the professional capabilities needed for life. We look forward to Ourly.help's accelerated success based on strong technology expertise and deep insight into its target market."
