Three new speakers have been confirmed for BusinessCloud’s next event on EdTech.

The breakfast event on September 6 will hear from some of the disrupters that are shaking up an industry that has long been ripe for disruption.

The latest speakers to confirm are Michael Brennan, founder and CEO of tootoot, which is the UK’s number one reporting app for children and young people in schools; Daniel Hinkley, co-founder of Manchester-based GoXchange Global, which supports exchange students; and Robin Williams, head of digital at Twinkl.

Twinkl provides schools with an online catalogue of more than 625,000 resources and services and has 4.6m members in over 196 countries and employs 500 people. It has just opened a new 20,000 sq ft office in Sheffield.

It brings the total number of speakers confirmed for the event to 10 including Christine Bellamy, head of product, BBC Education; Jade Parkinson-Hill, founder, Steam School; Dan Price, co-founder, Supplywell; and Andy Kent, founder and CEO, Angel Solutions.

The breakfast event, which will take place at UKFast’s Manchester campus, is free to attend but spaces are limited.
