Using Market Expert

HolonIQ EdTech 1000 (in Lists)

  • One of the best ways to identify top EdTech companies would be utilize the HolonIQ EdTech 1000 as every year, HolonIQ identifies the most promising EdTech startups by region.

  • The EdTech 1000 is focused on identifying young, fast growing and innovative learning, teaching and up-skilling startups from the region.

    • Powered by data and insights from our Impact Intelligence Platform together with qualitative assessments by HolonIQ’s Intelligence Unit, and local market experts, organizations are evaluated and scored based on our eligibility and assessment criteria, which excludes EdTech's founded over 10 years ago, or those which have exited (listed, acquired or controlled by another organization).

  • Go the HolonIQ EdTech 1000 Topic page and isolate for the EdTech 1000 market maps/lists to start identifying top EdTech companies.

Organizations Dataset

  • You can also go directly into our Organizations and use filters to start narrowing down a list of top EdTechs then create a List of EdTechs

    • Be sure to use metrics such as Type (to exclude Universities, Investors, Government Agencies), Region, Founded, and/or Model

    • If you save a List as an Active List, any new organizations that fit your criteria/filter set will automatically be added to your List.

Data Studio

  • Any Organization List can be brought into the Data Studio to provide a table view of the Organizations and their profile details. This table can be downloaded as a CSV for any external analysis.
