Want to see how BIG MONEY is taking over education? The nation's leading entrepreneurs will gather for their annual conference at the Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona, to exchange ideas about the ongoing monetization, privatization, innovation, and profits in the education "industry." This summit was originally organized by Michael Moe, who has for years predicted that the education sector could be monetized...the Common Core is helping the cause: The standards are making ed tech more attractive because entrepreneurs can now tailor their product to a single set of academic guidelines. Several notable investment deals have closed in the past month alone. Some of the sponsors: Pearson, the Gates Foundation, Microsoft, McGraw-Hill, Cengage, amazon, Scholastic, etc. The speakersà ?? list reads like a whoà ??s who of the privatization movement, which it is. |
