What if education worked like your smartphone?

In this segment from Tech Leaders Untold, former 7-Eleven and Blockbuster CEO Jim Keyes lays out a bold, scalable plan to reimagine American education: an Education Operating System (EOS).

Just like Apple’s iOS unlocked a world of innovation, Jim argues that EOS could create universal access to high-quality learning tools, individualized education for every student, and real-time connections between students, teachers, and edtech providers; all while ensuring privacy, security, and interoperability.


You’ll hear:

  • Why 13,000 different school systems create a broken, fragmented experience
  • How a national EOS could level the playing field for every learner and educator
  • What real personalized learning looks like in an AI-enabled classroom
  • How EOS could bridge the digital divide and increase third-grade literacy nationwide
  • Why Jim believes we need a modern-day JFK-style moonshot to make this happen


If you care about the future of education, AI in the classroom, or building a more equitable system for all, this conversation will inspire you.
