EDITORIAL OVERVIEW: CELEBRATING 5000 APPLICATIONS
August may be coming to an end, but the relentless stream of educational innovation we’re seeing from our global community certainly isn’t. This week, the 5000th application since we inaugurated Reimagine Education in 2014 was opened: a huge milestone for an initiative that began with just over 250. In just a few subsequent days, we’ve seen nearly another 100 commenced, and we’re delighted to see that more and more of the world’s best universities and most promising edtech companies are sharing their work with us. There’s still more than enough time to be one of them: our competition closes on 15th September.
There is still – just about – also time to submit if you’d like to be a judge, speaker, or to run a workshop at the event. However, those calls must close on Sunday at 23:59 GMT, so it truly is now or never (well – at least for 2019) if you’d like to participate in our program. Due to a huge volume of applications across the initiative, we will be informing speaker applicants of their outcome two days later than anticipated – Friday 6th September.
