Education is one of the most disrupted sectors by tech. This has been reinforced during covid with flocks of investors trying to hunt down startups leveraging remote learning.
With so many options available now to learn and train yourself, debates are hotting up:
“Are universities really worth the money?”
The next frontier for Edtech seems to be VR/AR and of course the metaverse.

Let’s try and go a bit further with a definition:
Edtech, short for educational technology, includes a broad range of hardware, software, and processes designed to enhance teaching and learning experiences.
It includes tools and platforms that facilitate education by making it more accessible, efficient, and personalised. Edtech solutions can be used in various educational settings, from kindergarten through to higher education and professional training.
These technologies aim to improve student engagement, facilitate remote learning, offer customised learning experiences, and provide educators with tools to track progress and manage classrooms more effectively.
A successful example of a UK-based Edtech company is Duolingo. Although originally founded in the US, Duolingo has a significant presence in the UK and globally, offering language learning to millions of users worldwide.
The platform uses gamification to make learning new languages engaging and effective, catering to a wide range of languages. Its success lies in its user-friendly interface, personalised learning paths, and its ability to cater to learners of various ages and backgrounds, making language learning accessible to everyone with an internet connection.
