The Kids' Camp That Turned Screen Time Into Shop Class - Then Sold Its Playbook
Lulu and Brendan Manley built the camp they wanted for their own children, survived a pandemic that arrived just as demand appeared, and expanded into more than 100 schools. The clever bit was never teaching kids to consume more technology - it was giving them tools and asking them to make something.
RoboTerra, Inc.
RoboTerra, Inc. is a Silicon Valley educational robotics company founded in 2014 that teaches middle- and high-school students to build robots and write real code. Its flagship Origin Kit pairs more than 85 hardware components and the RoboCore controller with the cloud-based, gamified Castle Rock learning platform, turning C++ programming into something a 10-year-old can pick up. Led by founder and CEO Yao Zhang, a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, the company set out to make hands-on robotics education accessible far beyond elite schools, reaching institutions across dozens of countries.
Cuemath
Cuemath is an after-school, live, one-on-one online math tutoring platform for students from kindergarten through grade 12. Founded in 2013 by IIT-Delhi alumnus Manan Khurma, the company teaches math (and coding) as a life skill through its proprietary Cuemath Leap classroom, where expert tutors cue rather than tell students toward answers. Backed by Google, Peak XV (formerly Sequoia Capital India) and Alpha Wave, Cuemath serves over 200,000 students across 80+ countries with a US Common Core-aligned curriculum.
