Jennifer Carolan is Co-Founder and Partner at Reach Capital. In 2014, while with the NewSchools Venture Fund, Carolan spoke with Steve Blank about the emergence of EdTech products – before technology was widely used in classrooms and many students had access to their own devices. Pulling from her experience as a science teacher, Carolan shared insights on how we can incorporate the venture model and mindset into education. Her future forward thinking emphasized the importance of involving the teachers who are leading the EdTech revolution.
