Listen Later

Thanks to Learnosity and WorkTripp for sponsoring this episode.

In this episode, I'm in conversation with:

  • Felix Atkin, the Founder & CEO at Sharesy, on dealing with cost pressures in schools
  • Dr Maureen Dunne, neurodiversity advisor to Lego Foundation and the President and CEO of Autism Community Ventures, on supporting innovation in the area of neurodiversity

We talk about:

  • How to help schools raise extra funds by easily supporting their community needs
  • What funds are available for innovation around neurodiverse needs – including USD 20 million to catalyse innovation supporting neurodivergent children
  • Why this matters and can strengthen the education, products, services and business we build and use

Plus, some updates on edtech events, reports, and other news.
