The New Normal in EdTech: Who Will Lead and What Will They Deliver?
Information
This virtual content session will feature a discussion between John Jorgenson, CMO of Cambium Learning Group, and Adam Newman, co-founder and managing partner of Tyton Partners. Despite the disruption across the education industry over the last year, there is reason to be optimistic as educators and leaders prepare for the upcoming school year. New Cambium research finds that 71% of leaders believe the education field is in a better position than five years prior. During this panel, John and Adam will discuss their thoughts on the future state of education in the post-pandemic environment, as well as the role of edtech moving forward in this “new normal.” Given how the edtech market has accelerated rapidly in 2021 — in the first six months alone, U.S.-based edtech companies raised over $3.2 billion in investment capital, which already surpasses the $2.2 billion total raised for all of 2020 and $1.7 billion in 2019 — John and Adam will also discuss the next phase of investment in education, including prime areas for growth coming out of the pandemic.
