In a world where investors are looking for stable and growing long-term returns with social impact, the education sector is becoming increasingly attractive.

We speak to leading educators, operators, and investors in the education sector around the world to explore this growing investment theme alongside our listeners. From preschools to K-12 schools to higher education and vocational education, from ed tech to education infrastructure, from VC investors to private equity and family offices, we explore it all.

I'm your host, Monde Nkosi. Education has always been a big part of my life because my mother founded a school which was across the road from our home. I have benefited from excellent schools and teachers in South Africa and the US. I went on to study education and I'm now very grateful to be an investor in the sector that I love.
