Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis faculty members Ali Jafari and David Mills have developed a new type of e-learning software called Angel. Angel is the first enterprise course management and portal software program to be offered to K-12 and higher educational institutions for free. It is a Web-based teaching and learning enterprise environment that allows educational institutions to offer online courses that complement traditional classroom-based courses and to customize their campus Web sites to individual users.

The IU Advanced Research and Technology Institute formed a new company called CyberLearning Labs, Inc., around this technology. ARTI is a private, not-for-profit corporation acting on behalf of the Indiana University to transfer technology and know-how from researchers to the world of business. ARTI provided financial support, business consultation, and other resources to CyberLearning Labs, Inc. The company will also offer consulting, engineering, and technical services as well as an online training course for the development and implementation of Angel.
