Here at LAUNCH we follow innovation like hawks, and we've seen a lot of activity from founders working on education and 'edutainment,' both for kids and adults. So, we're going to have an intimate 250-person event for folks trying to disrupt the space on June 12th and 13th in Silicon Valley (Mountain View to be exact). More details at our official site: http://www.launchedu.co

We're putting together a spreadsheet of folks innovating in the space here. Please let us know in the comments below anyone we should add, and if you have something stealth you would like to debut at the event let us know at edu@launch.co.


OUR PROCESS

We run a light, merit-based process to select the 25 startups that will present at the event. We do demos with 100 folks who have great products. Then we figure out who has the most to offer the audience based on their product execution, their vision/roadmap and the insights/learning they are willing to share.

Here are the three best ways to secure a spot on stage:

1. have a well-thought out and well-executed product
2. be willing to share meaningful learnings (more you give the better)
3. have new features or products to show for the first time on stage

Selected companies will be required to do a rehearsal before the event to make sure they are stage-ready.

Note: if a company is on our public spreadsheet, we will contact them about setting up a demo.
