The ASU+GSV Summit, co-founded by Michael Moe and Deborah Quazzo, began in 2010 with a collaboration between Global Silicon Valley (GSV) and Arizona State University (ASU).
GSV is a global education community and investment platform singularly focused on elevating the scope and scale of innovation in the $7 trillion education and workforce sector. Portfolio holdings include Andela, Class Technologies, ClassDojo, Coursera, Course Hero, Degreed, Guild, MasterClass, Outlier, Photomath, Quizizz, Lead School, Brightchamps, and ClassPlus, among others.
ASU+GSV’s north star is that ALL people have equal access to the future, and innovations at scale in “PreK to Gray” learning and skills are critical to achieving that end.
ASU+GSV is an amazing opportunity for graduate students curious about education entrepreneurship to learn from and connect with industry leaders. If you are new to ASU + GSV, hear what our past scholarship recipients have said about their experience!
