The twin sisters whose lives were changed by digital skills

So, when they were 11, the sisters completed the Tech Park 3D modelling course, and, since then, they have been doing their favourite work without stopping for a moment.

'We work together, understand each other without a word. When one of us has an idea, another adds something, and so we complement each other,' says Ani.

Nini and Ani study at school and work at the same time. They work on design, factsheets, posters, and the like. The girls received their first fee of GEL 50 when they were 14.

'We spent this money on our first ankle-boots and were immensely happy. Now we work on relatively higher-budget commissions,' Nini laughs.

They started getting serious commissions after completing a course organised by GeoLab and Georgia's Innovation and Technology Agency (GITA) in 2020. Until then, YouTube tutorials had been their main teachers in the digital world. Now, they are expanding fast: 'We are growing; we will be the developers. We have put together a team of designers and marketers and collaborate on large projects. We establish a creative agency, work on web, and branding,' says Nini.
