Fueling equity in education with EdTech

Summary

The digital transformation of manual assessment procedures and learning therapies into automated solutions has led to the creation of the EdTech sector, which is fueling equity in education. To stimulate the kind of digital transformation needed in education, the US government has allocated considerable funding for tech startups and small businesses looking to leverage research and scientific findings to build next-gen solutions that will not only have an impact on millions of people but will do so in a commercially viable manner.
