EdTalks: Workshop on Forming Trustworthy Collaborations with Education Institutions with Ewoud de Kok
Join this insightful session on the Trust Framework and Public Values in EdTech, featuring Ewoud de Kok, Founder and CEO of Feedback Fruits and board member of Dutch EdTech. This workshop is offered in collaboration with Npuls Pilothub EdTech as part of the Startup in Residence Programme.
Ewoud is a key member of the project team behind the Trust Framework, a comprehensive set of values and practical guidelines aimed at fostering Trustworthy Public/Private Partnerships in Education and solidifying the relationships between educational institutions and EdTech vendors. Read his interview, together with Cees Plug, here.
Ewoud highlights that founders encounter opposition due to several factors when establishing connections with educational institutions:
They perceive EdTech startups as "commercial" entities, apprehensive that their primary focus is financial gain rather than providing effective educational solutions.
They perceive startups as unreliable and perceive them as risky for long-term engagement.
They express concern about the potential sale of the business, fearing that the impact-oriented founder they've engaged with may no longer be involved in the venture.
In this interactive workshop, you'll explore how to leverage the Trust Framework to benefit your EdTech venture, face the common challenges Ewoud himself has experienced, and identify follow-up actions to get started on implementation.
Don't miss out on this invaluable opportunity to deepen your understanding on public values in education and get the opportunity to ask all your burning questions to Ewoud de Kok!
