WHY ATTEND?
During the past ten years, the SIIA Ed Tech Business Forum has earned its reputation as the leading business and finance conference for the K-12 and postsecondary education technology market. Once again, our very timely theme -- this year on “Doing Business in the New Normal” --is meant to help education technology companies transition their businesses to meet the realities of today's market. Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insight into how customers and investors are changing their expectations of ed tech publishers and learn about emerging trends in cloud services, mobile devices, OER, and more.
We’ll also continue to implement successful components from past Ed Tech Business Forums, designed to help you:
- Network with business and finance executives in the ed tech industry
- Gain early access to new companies/technologies
- Learn new business models, regardless of your company’s size or lifecycle stage
- Leverage the many education events taking place in NYC the week following Thanksgiving
WHAT’S THE ROI?
Attendees will leave this year’s Forum knowing:
- what 'the new normal means' for ed tech customers, investors and ed tech publishers
- how customers plan to purchase and use technology differently in the present and in the future.
- how investor expectations have changed and what it takes to secure financing, and drive market capitalization at every stage in the company life-cycle.
- how to keep pace and thrive in the face of new educational and economic realities.
