Breeann Gibbons
CTE Director, Julesburg School District
“KANU is easy for our students to navigate without feeling overwhelmed, and it still offers a fantastic experience. Working with the team has been a joy. We're already planning to include KANU in our next Perkins grant.”
Jeff Meade
Entrepreneurship Program Director, Paul Quinn College
“Learning happens when you actually do something, and KANU captures venture-based learning in a nutshell. It's incredible to see.”
Teri Cady
Head of School
“Engagement was high, and that was just year one. Students respond at a much higher rate when there's a teacher behind it.”
Shorouq Almallah
Entrepreneurship Program Lead, Grand Valley State University
“KANU is very intuitive, and I love the simplicity of it. In the learning module, I see a lot of potential.”
Galen Harkness
Business Teacher, Julesburg School District
“KANU helped me bring real-world content into the classroom. It's clever and packed with powerful content, and it made a real difference in how my students engaged.”
Teresa
Professor, University of the Incarnate Word
“I've had students who never thought they could make a dollar come away more confident. One started selling purses he made from upcycled clothing, which is now DDs Creations.”
Dr. Nancy Forster-Holt
Professor, University of Rhode Island
“I was so tired of the hypothetical business idea. When they explained KANU, I said, you nailed it.”
Dale & Andrew Illnicki
Entrepreneurship Faculty, University of Richmond
“I love the look and feel you've developed. The features and benefits are really intuitive, which is great.”
Regina Thompson
Wave Program, Florida Atlantic University
“It's a fun, gamified way to run our program, and it's customizable. For student entrepreneurship, it's worth trying.”
Dr. Colleen Robb
Professor, Florida Gulf Coast University
“Every class we showed the dashboard, students would come on time because they wanted to see how they stacked against their teammates.”
Justin Heacock
Executive Director, Florida Southern College
“KANU took our incubation program from 25 students to over 400 in a single academic year. With one full-time employee, we run a full incubation program without adding staff.”
Dr. John Wilson
Drexel University
“KANU connects experience with pedagogy.”
Dr. David Tomczyk
Professor, Quinnipiac University
“In the two years we've used KANU, the number of teams who failed to launch a business has approached zero. Our teams are more motivated to sell, on and off platform.”
OUR VISION
Every student gets the chance to build real-world skills by doing real things, not just learning about them.
