Robert Sundelius is Chair at FriendsLearn. FriendsLearn is the award winning pioneer of Digital Vaccines and Neurocognitive Computing, as the founding research translation partner of Carnegie Mellon University's Digital Vaccine Project .

Through FriendsLearn, teenagers and young adults internationally will have access to anytime, anywhere, content-rich, interactive and collective learning. Effective learning is inherently a social phenomenon driven by exchange between peers. The core purpose of FriendsLearn is to empower human potential as a result of gaining a better understanding of our world. The company's first game was developed under a contract with the US Department of State’s EducationUSA to build a 3D social game that engages and promotes the US as a destination for learning. Since 2012, Your 5 Steps to US Study has been used by prospective international students around the world.
