Over 50 Classes Offered Nationwide in High Schools
Startup accelerator SparkLabs (CEO Kim Yoo-jin) announced on the 30th that it has made a seed investment in Impactors (CEO Kim Bo-kyung), a social venture company operating a career and college admission edutech platform.
Impactors is an educational social venture that provides student-customized major classes alongside the public education curriculum to help adolescent students find and develop careers and aptitudes suited to themselves. Currently, it operates over 50 classes at regional high schools in Busan, Incheon, Gwangju, Mokpo, Andong, and other areas.
Impactors' curriculum is designed by highly experienced and highly educated retired professors reflecting the latest trends in students' desired majors and areas of interest such as ▲ESG ▲History ▲Bio ▲Climate ▲IT. Partner schools can immediately apply high-quality advanced major classes on site. In particular, the 'Impact Maker' class, which focuses on solving social problems, is a creative convergence talent education course that is so popular that applications are always closed early.
With this investment, Impactors will accelerate the development of solutions to improve educational operation efficiency. They plan to build an educational environment where instructors can focus on individual students through an online solution that automates student management, assignment status, and result organization throughout the classes.
