100 Education Related Companies Ranked by Momentum Index
Sector: Education  (100 companies ranked)
Released: July 26, 2012

Call all entrepreneurs! Its time to transform education! More than $2.5 trillion is spent on education globally. The incumbents are ripe to disruptive innovation, yet most of what we see, with some exceptions, is evolutionary, not revolutionary. We think the education market is ripe for something new and huge. There are lots of interesting small companies, but we don't see many game changers on this list.
Highlights
Our Favorite: 2tor
Cool Start-ups: Open English, Udemy
Companies to Watch: Lumos Labs, Kno,
Regent Education
