I’m frequently asked by founders which VCs invest in companies focused on learning or career mobility. I say “edtech” VCs as most of these investors are investing preK to gray including consumer, corporate, etc. not just K12 school sales.

The “edtech” VCs listed here are either focused on this space full-time or have strong theses about the space / have written about their interest in the space.

I’ve kept a running note in email drafts and google spreadsheets for years and decided to make it public. I was inspired by Sydney Thomas’ airtable list of black women in venture to share it in this format.

This is unfortunately not the most comprehensive list — I’ve primarily focused on the US, and also have some mentions of investors in Europe and LATAM.

Please feel free to comment, email or DM me (not LinkedIn) with anyone who should be added.

Enjoy!
