South By Southwest’s Education Conference and Festival welcomes education professionals, and some of the brightest minds in edtech, to Austin, Texas.

Participants range from teachers, administrators and professors to policy makers, foundations, startups, presidents of large publishing companies and everyone in between.

Of course, we wouldn’t want to miss out on an opportunity to learn and collaborate with some of best and brightest in the game, so our CEO, COO and VP of Product & Technology were also among the attendees. The conference included tons of forward-thinking presentations and informative sessions, but the highlight for many was Bill Gates’ closing keynote address!
