Makers Empire is thrilled to announce that we have been selected from 360 applicants as a Top 10 finalist in the Global Edtech Startups Awards 2014.
The competition’s goal is to identify, highlight and recognise the world’s most promising EdTech startups for 2014 – those which present potential for groundbreaking learning solutions.
Jon Soong, CEO of Makers Empire, commented,“The team here at Makers Empire is very proud to have received this nomination on behalf of all the primary schools and our supporters who have been with us on the journey to date.”
“Thank you to the Global Edtech Startup judges for selecting us and congratulations to all the finalists. We will continue to work hard and bring the excitement and fun of 3D printing to more students – we believe that the skills they learn today will provide them with an advantage in the future as the 3D consumer revolution really takes hold.”
The 10 finalists will be invited to the final event on September 15 where the 4 winners will be selected: 3 from the panel of judges and 1 by popularity from the audience responses.
The winners will be awarded with free acceptance to five leading world EdTech ecosystems: Tel Aviv, New York, London, Barcelona and Bogotá ; office space and facilities, mentoring and guidance, over a total period of four months, at the following EdTech accelerators: EdTech Incubator (London), Socratic Labs (New York), P.A.U Education (Barcelona), MindCET (Tel Aviv and Yeruham) and Inncubated (Bogotá).
