Emerge Education is a London-based, 3-month accelerator programme for startups intending to improve educational outcomes. On top of a £15K living stipend, workspace and business support, selected companies receive:
- Access to a deep pool of educators, progressive educational institutions and existing distribution platforms for live customer testing and accelerated market distribution.
