Has educational technology delivered on its promise of increased student achievement? Are software and curriculum developers leading the transformation we hoped for?

Today we meet with Diana Richie, an EdTech thought leader. Diana has led sales and marketing organizations at big tech companies and scrappy start-ups alike. Her decades of experience leading growth efforts for some great companies have informed her interesting perspective on the K12 education market.

We were excited to discuss her thoughts on the state of the K12 customer as they struggle to navigate the pandemic and other significant challenges.
