Packback is proud to announce that we have been named to TIME and Statista's inaugural list of “World’s Top EdTech Companies 2024”. To compile this list, Time and Statista gathered and analyzed data from over 7,000 global EdTech companies, scoring them on two primary criteria: financial strength and industry impact. After analyzing and scoring each company, Time and Statista ultimately decided to designate the 250 highest scoring companies as the World's Top EdTech Companies. This recognition would not be possible without the tireless efforts of each and every Packback employee, along with the partnerships we’ve formed with professors, HigherEd Institutions, K-12 Institutions, and students across the country. We thank you all for your part in this recognition and look forward to continuing our mission to inspire every student to be fearlessly curious. #time #worldstopedtech #rankings #edtech #educationnews You can read the full publication here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gbhhm4pE

🎉 Three cheers for our #Packbacker Spotlight of the Week - Brian Evans! 🎉 Brian, our talented Team Lead from Arizona, is not just a pro at Packback—he’s also an enthusiast for board games, card games, 3D printing, and diving into a great book. 📚🎲 Here’s what Brian has to say about our purpose at Packback: “I love that we always keep our focus on the students. Everything that we do, even professor tools, has the end-goal of helping students learn and grow. With social media and the advent of AI tools, it feels like we're in a time where having the skills and the confidence to express your unique voice may be at risk, and I feel like Packback will continue to encourage students to seek out opportunities to share their own thoughts and opinions in a constructive environment.” Brian, we’re so lucky to have you as a leader on our team! 🙌 #TeamLead #EmployeeAppreciation #EdTech
