The wait is over: we’re delighted to announce the Top 10 Finalists in each category of the second edition of the Global EdTech Prize. Selected from hundreds of entries from education innovators around the world, these organisations are leading the way in using technology to tackle some of education’s biggest challenges.
The finalists will now take their innovations to the global stage at the World Schools Summit in London in January 2027, where they’ll have the opportunity to showcase their work to an international community of education leaders, educators, and changemakers.
The Global EdTech Prize, launched by T4 Education with the support of Owl Ventures and Digital Promise, shines a spotlight on technology that is making a meaningful difference in education. From addressing learning inequalities and strengthening teacher support to developing the skills students need for the future, the Global EdTech Prize celebrates solutions with the potential to create lasting impact.
Finalists are recognised across three categories: Majors, Non-Profits, and Start-Ups. While their approaches and areas of focus may differ, they share a common ambition: harnessing innovation to improve education, empower teachers and learners, and create stronger communities.
The finalists take the stage in London
In January 2027, finalists will bring their solutions to the World Schools Summit in London, UK. They’ll have the chance to pitch their innovations live to an international panel of experts and a global audience of educators and education leaders.
The winners of the Global EdTech Prize will be determined through a final vote by Summit attendees, putting the decision directly in the hands of the education community.
