edtech logo - Global Banking | Finance“We’re delighted to welcome such a strong collection of industry thought leaders, influencers and innovators to bolster our work in the European edtech and e-learning marketplace,” said EdTech Europe’s founders Benjamin Vedrenne-Cloquet and Charles McIntyre. “Despite evidence that edtech and e-learning represent one of the most attractive investment opportunity of the next decade, European e-learning companies are still struggling to attract investment on the same scale as their US counterparts, resulting in a fragmented and under-invested industry in comparison with other tech sectors. Ed Tech Europe has been formed to raise the profiles of innovators and players driving the industry forward and to encourage consolidation and capital investment in the sector”. Our Advisory Board is here to guide and support our mission and will expand soon to encompass representatives of all aspects of the industry – from teachers to venture capitalists”.

The EdTech Europe Advisory Board will make up part of the judging panel for the 2014 EdTech 20 rankings. EdTech 20 highlights the top 20 e-learning companies in Europe by innovation, scale, market impact and revenue over the past year, as well as the key trends in the education technology space.

Last year’s EdTech 20 list highlighted some edtech companies which were trying out some really disruptive models and getting some real traction,” commented Advisory Board member Louise Rogers, CEO, TES Global. “We are keen to see how things have progressed since then, particularly as the number of companies innovating in this area is exploding. The e-learning space is one of the most active and diverse at the moment and we look forward to receiving entries from far and wide across Europe.”
