As Mark Shashoua, Hyve CEO, puts it:
“Together, GSV Summit and Bett form a powerful
new alliance across the global learning landscape.
We’re also thrilled that founders Deborah Quazzo,
Michael Moe and Michael Cohn will continue to
play a key role, with Deborah staying on as Chair,
and Michael and Michael as Advisors, helping us
keep GSV Summit’s founding mission of creating
equal access to opportunity through innovation in
education alive. The community and events they
have built are of the highest quality.”
Portfolio Director for Bett, Duncan
Verry, added:
“Our Bett customers have told us time and again
they want more access and insight into the U.S.
and now we can deliver that. With GSV Summit
joining forces with Bett, we’re building bridges
between two complementary communities.
GSV Summit also brings exceptional strength
in adjacent sectors such as workforce learning,
which adds real depth to our global EdTech
platform and offers valuable opportunities for
Bett to expand its reach and relevance across
lifelong learning. We’re excited to create even
more value together.”
