We’re making a big Bett on the future! In a seminal merger, Bett and GSV Summit are combining forces to redefine global EdTech—and create the largest and most impactful education innovation community in the world.
Since 1985, Bett Global has built its sterling reputation by being at the forefront of EdTech for educators, students, and parents—now hosting annual conferences in London, São Paulo, and Asia with 90,000+ attendees and over 70 Ministries of Education.
The GSV Summit was founded in 2010 and in partnership with Arizona State University started the ASU+GSV Summit and has been called “the Davos of Education” and “the must-attend EdTech conference” by bringing together over 15,000 global leaders in education, entrepreneurship, technology, finance, and government. The North Star of the Summit from its origin is the aspiration for education technology to give everyone the opportunity to participate in the future through access to high-quality learning.
“In a global marketplace and knowledge-based economy, education makes the difference—not only for an individual, but for a company, and even for a country,” said Michael Moe, Co-founder, GSV Summit. “For sixteen years, it’s been our deepest honor and privilege to partner with Arizona State University, which has ranked number one in innovation in the United States for the last ten years by U.S. News & World Report and has been a global model of excellence at scale. GSV stands for Global Silicon Valley—stretching from Boston to Austin, from Chicago to São Paulo, from Mumbai to Shanghai and Dubai.”
The united platform of Bett and GSV will host events on four continents with over 100,000 participants.
Tiffany Taylor will lead GSV Summit as President with Deborah Quazzo, Michael T. Moe, and Michael Cohn serving as Office of the Chair, and Adam Freed, Claire Zau, and Jason Horne joining as members of the Summit Advisory Council.
