I co-founded LearnSprout (ImagineK12, W12) with jobowoo. This was my first time doing a startup, going through the program at ImagineK12 was an incredible learning experience.

You can expect: 1) First Day – get your ass kicked and assumptions checked on your product and vision 2) Educator Day – make your pitch to enthusiastic early adopter edtech enthusiasts and investors from the community 3) Weekly lunch/dinner speakers 4) Demo Day – self explanatory 5) accessible partners (Tim, Geoff, Alan) in person or via Skype whenever you need help With edtech, it's incredibly rewarding to know that our late night coding sessions and long work weeks at LearnSprout translate into something of tangible social value: principals, teachers and students getting their software headaches out of the way and focusing on teaching + learning. ImagineK12 will help you focus on finding a real need within education that you ought to be solving with your team and talents. We believe in the vision that software will eat the world, and it's only a matter of time that all classrooms will be immersed in new learning methods driven by and aided by technology.
