# Online Learning: Next-Gen Education

Technologists, venture capitalists, educators, policy makers, investors, and edtech entrepreneurs gathered in San Francisco on June 24th to discuss the productive use of technology to transform education – from pre-K to life-long learning.  Sponsored by **SVForum**, law firm **Orrick, Herrington, and Sutcliffe**, and **Microsoft**, the [**Next-Gen Education**](http://svforum.org/Education-Tech-Conference/Next-Gen-Education) conference brought together some of the most progressive education companies in the world.[![Online Learning](https://www.designmind.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Online-Learning-e1403825389248-4.jpg?width=375&height=285&name=Online-Learning-e1403825389248-4.jpg)](https://www.designmind.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Online-Learning-e1403825389248-4.jpg)

Discussions about the K-12 world included experts from **Kidaptive, KIPP, Rethink Education, Clever,** and **EdSurge**.  Higher education experts were from **NovoEd, Pathbrite, InsideTrack, Learn Capital**, **Minerva Project,** and **Udemy**.

**Using leading edge Big Data and Business Intelligence technologies**, these organizations are able to bring online learning to students around the world. Just one example of these groundbreaking companies is NovoEd. Founded in 2012 by Stanford University professor Amin Saberi, [**NovoEd**](https://novoed.com/) creates online courses that foster more social interactions between students and teachers. NovoEd’s list of partners now includes Stanford, Princeton, University of Michigan, University of Virginia Darden School of Business, Wharton, and the Carnegie Foundation, among others.

Worldwide, what are the major markets for online classes? Students in the United States by a landslide, followed by online learners in India, the United Kingdom, Canada, and China.
