IEI Superintendent Coaching CEO Workshop - SOLD OUT!

Registration is sold out. Apply for the wait list below.
 
Tuesday, April 8th, at 10:10 AM 

If your company is looking to grow your business through partnerships with school districts in the US, this is the session for you. In this workshop, we will share guidance for education companies on how to break into the difficult-to-navigate K-12 market.

The Institute For Education Innovation (IEI) is a national think tank of school superintendents that serves as the bridge between district leaders and the K-12 industry to develop solutions to the greatest challenges in education. Part of our core mission is to increase communication between district leaders, industry CEOs, and investors in K-12 companies. We believe this increased communication will help us uncover effective, sustainable solutions to real-world, right-now issues in K–12 public education and help us ensure student success while promoting equity in the classroom.

In this workshop, you will learn how to become true partners with schools - the urban and rural, the large and small, the affluent and the underfunded. You will understand the real-world needs of superintendents and how to provide them with tailor-made tools to help them positively disrupt education.  Up to 30 service and solution providers will be able to participate in this session, which will match companies with a minimum of four, 8-minute 1:1 meetings with IEI superintendents.  IEI’s matching process ensures that your 1:1 meetings will be with superintendents you prioritize and who are looking to learn more about the work you do.

To Attend: 
  • Must have an ASU+GSV badge to attend
  • To be eligible for this session, you must NOT be a currently subscribed IEI partner or have attended our session last year.
  • First 30 eligible companies will be accepted
  • Participating companies must submit matching preferences for 1:1s by 4/12 using the registration link
