Prior to selling this side of the business to Baidu, the company created a mobile phone app store stocked with self-created games and applications.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} NetDragon had differentiated itself by eschewing selling apps through the distribution channels of others instead creating its own;[6] in essence making consumers download an app to download an app but allowing them exposure to other Netdragon offerings in the process.{{citation needed|date=January 2013}} EducationNetDragon Websoft started getting involved in education [7] in 2010 with the aims to develop "the largest learning community globally" [8]. NetDragon has made several acquisitions regarding education and community, amongst which are included: Edmodo was acquired by NetDragon on April 8, 2018 [9]On July 3, 2017, NetDragon announced that it had acquired American educational software publisher Knowledge Adventure.[10] NetDragon also acquired a 100 percent stake in the London-listed Promethean World back in 2015. [11] Sale of 91 WirelessNetDragon’s sold its app store, 91 Wireless, to Baidu for $1.85 billion in what was hailed as the biggest deal ever in China’s IT sector.[12] As the company controlled less than 58% of 91 Wireless, Netdragon took an estimated $1.06 billion from the sale.[13] The mobile applications available through this store, many of which are "91" branded,{{citation needed|date=June 2012}} are quite disparate and include more than mobile games–running the gamut from fortune telling to wealth management.[14] CSRThe company sponsors the Fujian NetDragon Youth Business Foundation, which helps entrepreneurial youth achieve their dream of starting a small business.[15] See also
