Education
Global Education Initiative
ETG's Global Education Intiative (GEI) provides free emerging technology education to underserved students around the world through a combination of teaching, curricula, and more.
Talking Less & Listening More
At ETG, we understand that outside interventions often fail to meet the educational and academic needs of students worldwide.
To that, ETG signs direct partnerships with grassroots educational nonprofits based in different countries around the world. Rather than speak first, we strive to listen to the needs of our local partners and play a supporting role wherever they wish.
Our Impact
In the words of our partners...
