E-Spaces Newsletter Updates March 2023

It's March, and here's what's been happening at E-spaces.

Finally BETT 2023!!!!

We count down no more. The British Educational Teaching and Technology (BETT) Show 2023 is here. We are honoured to have our product on display at the ExCeL Center in London! We will be showcasing from stand number FS41 and getting to meet some of the team members that make learning fun, seamless, and connected.

 

We are looking forward to this chance to connect with a large audience. We hope to have a multitude of schools visit our stand and trial our offers, provide valuable feedback, and discuss their experiences using our app’s beta version. Your feedback is always valuable to us.

Beta testing is in progress

We continue beta testing with our five schools: Herschel Grammar School, Greenford High School, the French School in London, Crosthwaithe Primary School, Gateshead College, and Sunderland College are on this exciting journey with us.

To enhance the online digital tool for teachers and students, all feedback is being gathered. The ultimate users of this tool, teachers and students, would have tried and tested it.

Once again, we are grateful to the schools that have joined this testing round, and we are excited to invite all of them to an exclusive event at the end of the testing period.

Fundraising

If you are interested in joining the funding round, there is still time. Our funding round is not yet closed, and we would be excited to work with investors who want to change the educational landscape with us.

Our pitching practice continues with us attending various events and pitching our product to them. The buzz continues with ongoing beta testing, and many are awaiting feedback on this application that will significantly reduce teacher workload and burnout while providing instant feedback.

Workshops attended

The company believes in continuous learning and skill advancement. Hence, Yvonne Buluma-Samba has been leading by example by attending the International Women’s Week Kick-Off and How to Handle Difficult Conversations. Various speakers imparted useful tools that hat the entire team has implemented.

Digital Catapult partnership going strong

A loud shoutout to the team at Sunderland Software City, Dr Ashmita Randawa, and Radu Gherasim from the Digital Catapult for collaborating with us at the start of our journey. This team continues to assist us in reaching greater heights and working towards making our vision a reality. We are grateful for your full support and assistance in helping E-spaces take the giant leaps that have been the norm the last few months.

Alumni of the Female Founder Accelerator Program!

It has been an exciting eight weeks at the 2023 Barclays Eagles Labs Female Founders Program Female Founder Accelerator, in collaboration with AccelerateHER. The closing demo event will be on the 30th of March, and what a privilege to be a part of the class of 2023! We are indebted for having been selected to attend this gem-packed session.

SETsquared partnership

The collaboration with the top business incubator in the world, SETsquared Scale-Up Program, continues to progress. They are assisting us in transforming our innovative concept into a globally scalable tech company with introductions to university partnerships, funding options, and overall business scale-up options and opportunities.

The program is already assisting us in better achieving our goal of making learning seamless, fun, and connected.

Our fifth school in focus is out!

E-spaces has a series that focuses on schools that promote well-being among staff and students. This series examines the integration of EdTech into the school's curriculum and, ultimately, how the three aspects impact academic success.

The school in focus this month is Eltham College, which offers an exceptional sixth-form program for career guidance.

E-spaces new team members

We have a new team member, Zunoon Shahzad who joins the social media marketing team. He will be working to upscale the content you see on our social media pages. We are excited to work with him and look forward to exciting posts. I bet you do too.
