GESS Education Partnership with EdTech impact

GESS Announces Partnership With EdTech Impact

The GESS team is excited to announce a new partnership with EdTech Impact, an independent review platform for education.


Designed to help educators find the best products, and companies to showcase their quality. This partnership will see the EdTech Impact product directory live on the new GESS Education website (the essential resource for educators featuring industry news, articles, videos and the latest GESS show news) and will help the GESS education community to source new solutions for their schools. 

Referral marketing is one of the most powerful tools for businesses, according to Nielson 92% of people trust recommendations from friends and family over any other type of advertising. EdTech Impact enables businesses to showcase independent reviews and ratings to boost lead generation and improve product discovery amongst the education community. Educators can be sure they are getting the most trusted products, as recommended by their peers.

"Our goal is to surface the best education solutions through independent reviews, ratings and data-driven certifications. Thousands of education buyers read our reviews every week to find the right products for their nursery, school or university. We are excited about the partnership with GESS and their new website as it will help the global education community identify the best products in an increasingly crowded marketplace" - Michael Forshaw, Founder and CEO, EdTech Impact.

The largest free database of EdTech products globally, EdTech impact is free and open to all educators. Reviews are independently submitted and published regardless of score, and focus specifically on how each product impacts student, teacher and parent outcomes.
