Hello, hive mind - I consult with EdTech startups on how to get their products adopted by colleges and universities, and I keep seeing a growing gap into the same marketplace problem:
Vendors don’t know how to reach the right people at institutions.
Institutions can’t find the innovative products that could help them.
Both sides are actively looking for each other, but neither knows where to look. It’s a visibility and connection problem.
Does this match what you’re seeing?
I’d like to help solve this. Would training on institutional partnerships be valuable? A better discovery process? Something else that would serve both vendors and institutions?
Open to discussion and happy to answer questions about navigating vendor-institution relationships. TIA
@Sher Downing we are building a connection intelligence model that can solve this. While that use case isn’t something we are working on, happy to jump on a call and share everything we are doing and how we are doing it if helpful
@Casey Davies-Bell I definitely would be interested. Send me your calendar link and I’ll get a time scheduled. Thanks!
Would be useful to have a webinar or training on the topic. I'm focused on college reslife and most of my approach has been direct cold outreach and attending reslife admin/RA conferences
Armando, we’re in the process of setting up the Nov schedule and having a webinar so I will post back as soon as we have the link ready.
