Philanthropy’s Essential Role in K-12 Edtech and Strategies for Impact
Although “Record Levels of Edtech Funding” has been a recurring headline, there hasn’t been a focus on the role of philanthropy as the majority of funding is coming from the private sector. From our front line view as an active edtech seed investor, we see the need for diverse forms of capital to realize the full potential of technology to differentiate instruction and drive improved learning outcomes.
With their long view of the market and a focus on student achievement, foundations are uniquely positioned to fill existing gaps in edtech funding. For example, additional sources of capital are needed to provide high quality technology tools for students with specialized needs and underserved backgrounds.
So what is preventing foundations from funding edtech? How much money have foundations recently contributed to edtech? Which foundations are leading the way and what innovative approaches are they taking? Find out in Philanthropy’s Essential Role in K-12 Edtech and Strategies for Impact, an analysis of the current state of major foundations and K-12 edtech funding.
We hope foundations will use this research to find ways to support the K-12 edtech ecosystem given their mission and capacity.

3 Ingredients for an Ed Tech Ecosystem
This document outlines three key ingredients needed for a successful ed tech ecosystem: 1) People with experience in education, technology, and investing; 2) Connectivity through online platforms and infrastructure to reach users; and 3) Dedicated early-stage capital from investors incentivized by both financial returns and social impact. It discusses how the U.S. has led the way in developing these ingredients but there is opportunity to build global ecosystems by optimizing deal flow across borders and diversifying investment sources. A global approach can foster collaboration, maximize potential markets, and develop solutions to educate the 96% of students currently outside the U.S.
