We’re proud to unveil the Top 10 finalists in each category for the inaugural Global EdTech Prize. These standout innovations were selected from hundreds of entries submitted by organisations across the globe. They’ve earned their place on the world stage at the World Schools Summit this November in Abu Dhabi.
Launched by T4 Education with the support of Owl Ventures, Digital Promise, Rethink Education, xEdu, Injini, Founders Forum, EdLatam, and IAAE, the Global EdTech Prize celebrates education technology that delivers real impact. It recognises tools that are helping to close learning gaps, support teachers, and build the skills students need to thrive.
Finalists are grouped into three categories, Majors, Non-Profits, and Start-Ups and reflect a shared mission: to support educators, empower students, and strengthen communities.
A global stage at the World Schools Summit
Finalists will present their tools live at the World Schools Summit in Abu Dhabi, UAE on 16 November 2025. They’ll pitch to an international panel of experts and an audience of educators. Winners will be selected through a final vote by summit attendees.
