Introducing Learnit, our partner for 2021

Learnit is a global community for education leaders, uniting the entire community and leading an intellectually honest conversation about the current state and future of learning, to revolutionise education, and ultimately change the world.

Learnit's first event took place in January 2019 and welcomed 1,000+ attendees from 69 countries including over 100 CEOs and Founders. Learnit’s 150+ international speakers are selected based on merit, not pay-to-play.

Learnit Virtual Events

Through a series of moderated panel discussions, Learnit examines the key topics, featuring individuals who are actively leading teams and institutions to affect change.

On Thursday 23 April, ‘Notes from the Epicentres’ offered Learnit’s first virtual event, a moderated panel discussion in partnership with Bett. Featuring K-12 leaders from Wuhan, New York, Milan and Seoul, the session examined the work of those pioneering a new normal for global education; leading their teachers and learners through transformational times, and preparing their institutions for a new normal.
