In this 4th episode of EdTech Founders from EdTech Garage we interview Didem Cikse, co-founder & CEO of Hub21, a K12 company building a new way to help kids & teens aged 7-17 to master their technology skills guided by passionate tutors from top universities, based out of Turkey and London.
We talk about: Combining online and offline learning, finding a co-founder, the talent crisis in tech in Turkey, support needed to scale to new markets and more.
Outtakes from the conversation:
"There is a lack of interaction between the education system and the digital innovative world. To increase this interaction, we decided to start Hub 21 learning in 2019."
"Digital talent in Turkey, they prefer to go with European startups and companies that pays in USD or euros."
"It's super hard for early stage founders to discover new markets alone. So it's important to find your peer support, especially in the early stage. As a founder, you have limited time and budgets, and maybe you have only one chance to discover one market."
The EdTech Garage is a network for early-stage European EdTech startups where founders can scale up faster through the founder community, matchmaking and specialized resources.
