Due to the huge impact of the Covid-19 in the Education, IMPACT EdTech partners worked in cooperation with the European Commission to launch a new Open Call to select SMEs, aiming at supporting schools in the current situation, by providing them with efficient solutions to ease the shift to full online teaching or blended learning models.

Therefore, the “Remote Schooling” IMPACT EdTech Open Call was launched last 3 July, and will remain open until 3 September 2020, at 13:00 CEST.

The aim of this call is to support EdTech start-ups and SMEs that address common challenges faced by schools during the COVID19 crisis.

Up to 12 selected companies will have the chance to participate in a 5-month IMPACT EdTech acceleration programme, during which they will be supported in piloting their solutions in schools and bringing them to market. Also, they will receive up to €110k equity-free.

During this webinar, we will explain the requirements of the call, the type of solutions we are looking for, and the funding and services that selected start-ups/SMEs will receive.

When: Tuesday the 25th of August at 12:00 CEST.

With whom: Lucie Milcent, IMPACT EdTech Project Manager in FundingBox. She has been working in EU funded projects as a Grant Writer and Project Manager for the past 8 years, mainly in the fields of Education and Research.
