There are many new offerings in early education, K-12, higher education, adult and corporate education and users are seeing high returns on investment at every level and over $2 billion in venture investment in the past year of which .$60 million and 90 deals came from angel investors.

EdTech has unique opportunities and challenges that investors and entrepreneurs should be aware of.
