British Foreign Commonwealth Office and Slovnaft, Inc. as the main supporters of this project rely on CSTS expertise and ability to convey science in a way that will help students and other visitors digest it much faster and better than before. Thus far, only a Slovak version of this website is available but an English version is foreseen for the near future.
