Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the entire ETIH team
As the year winds down, we want to pause and say a genuine thank you to everyone who has been part of EdTech Innovation Hub this year.
It has been a big year for ETIH. We have continued to grow as a trusted home for breaking EdTech news, thoughtful commentary, and practical insight from across the sector, while also laying the groundwork for some major milestones ahead.
One of the most exciting moments this year was announcing the very first ETIH Innovation Awards, set to take place in 2026. We officially launched the awards in 2025, opened registrations, and started conversations across the sector about what meaningful recognition in EdTech should look like. If you are working on something impactful, we would love for you to be involved, whether that is entering, sponsoring, or following the journey as the awards take shape.
We have also been busy behind the scenes preparing for BETT 2026, where ETIH will be exhibiting for the very first time. Alongside that, we are putting the finishing touches to our next ETIH magazine, which will be published at the start of 2026 and distributed at the event. Bringing the magazine together has been a real team effort, and we cannot wait to share it with you.
Throughout the year, we have covered some genuinely important stories, from major funding rounds and product launches to policy developments, AI in education, workforce readiness, and the realities facing schools, colleges, and providers right now. We are proud of the role ETIH continues to play as a go-to source for timely, relevant EdTech news.
Our community has grown significantly this year too. Our LinkedIn audience continues to climb, and the conversations, comments, and shares tell us that the content is landing where it matters. If you are not already following us, you can find us here.
If you prefer your updates straight to your inbox, you can also sign up to our newsletter to stay across the latest stories, awards updates, and industry insight.
Over the next couple of weeks, we will be publishing a small number of end-of-year articles and reflections. Regular daily news coverage will pause briefly, then return on 5 January, when normal service resumes.
To our readers, contributors, partners, and supporters, thank you for being part of the ETIH journey this year. Your trust, engagement, and ideas are what make this platform what it is.
We will be back refreshed, motivated, and ready for an even bigger year ahead.
Wishing you a restful break and a brilliant start to the new year.
— The ETIH team
