Sharing Edtech Best Practices and Success Stories in Order to Scale Innovation

We wish to amplify the voice of a large community of education innovators and share their philosophy, ideas, findings, innovations, achievements with a broader audience.

Svenia is an entrepreneur and explorer in the Education Innovation field. After publishing the Edtech 2016 report, in which she and Audrey emphasized the importance of dedicated organizations to foster education innovation in a given city and country, she is now founding LearnSpace, France's first Learning Innovation Cluster, where she wants to accelerate changemaking projects and people. Svenia studied both political science at the Freie Universität Berlin and management at HEC Paris.

Audrey is a final year Masters student in Innovation and Design Management at HEC Paris & Ecole Polytechnique. She is passionate about cultural biases in our education systems, the intersection of public policy and entrepreneurship, practical ethics and is a literature buff at heart. She recently joined Liberté Living Lab, a business incubator located in Paris, bringing together change drivers with varying profiles (from start-ups, social entrepreneurs, to digital artists and large corporations) to pool their expertise and knowledge to establish conditions that inspire community innovation open to society as a whole.
