Goal of FuturED
The program, which we promote alongside CDP Venture Capital, aims to identify the best startups that use artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to enhance learning experiences at all levels: school, university, and corporate. The program focuses on tutoring, corporate learning, career development, work performance assessments, gamification systems, and adaptive learning, employing technologies like augmented and virtual reality. It’s a unique launchpad for startups aiming to transform the world of education through innovation.
