EdTech Angels: Choosing your life partner

EdTech Founders

In season 2 we interview business angels investing in European EdTech startups to understand their investment thesis, what advice they would give startups seeking funding and how founders should approach these types of investors.

In this episode: We interview Erensah Ayanlar, who is the Chief Customer Experience Officer at Mesmerise, a company delivering immersive experiences in VR. She has a passion for food & education and is an angel investor in 16 companies, of which 25% is in EdTech.

We talk about: Education in the metaverse, why use of communities is critical, rethinking measures of success in the current investment climate, how geographical boundaries are less relevant for investment networks, how to select your investor and lots of other tips for founders.
