Inside Columbia's EdTech Ecosystem

​Inside Columbia’s EdTech Ecosystem brings together students, centers, and communities across Columbia working at the intersection of educational technology, the future of learning, entrepreneurship, innovation, and impact. Hosted by the Teachers College Business Club (TCBC) and Columbians in EdTech (CIET), the event is designed to help students discover resources they may not know they have access to—and meet the people behind them.

​The afternoon will include two focused panels—Future of Learning and Entrepreneurship & Impact—with dedicated Q&A and networking sessions throughout the event. Rather than waiting until the end to connect, attendees will have multiple opportunities to meet speakers, participating organizations, and other students across the Columbia ecosystem.

​Come to explore new resources, make cross-campus connections, and leave with a clearer sense of where to go next.
