SPG Provides Rich Experience Applied to EdTech Companies

EdTech is a rapidly growing market driven by technology advancements and acute need to improve the output from the educational process and system.   As noted by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in its 2014 Report Restoring the Foundation: The Vital Role of Research in Preserving the American Dream, “There is a deficit between what America is investing and what it should be investing to remain competitive, not only in research but in innovation and job creation.”  Part of the need centers around improved delivery of education in STEM and the ‘soft skills’ that support the next generation of innovators.

 Silver Park Group has specialized a portion of its time and resources to identify and cultivate best of category companies whose products and services have high probability of driving impact on education; K-12, Higher Education, and associated certifications for students and career employees.  SPG assists EdTech companies refine messaging and approach to market, participate in collaborative innovation, and ready themselves to compete at an ‘enterprise’ level.  In addition, SPG mentors its partner companies to prepare to pursue funding facilitated by SPG’s relationships with investment entities, both traditional venture investors and social impact investors.
