Becoming a parent changes how many view the world, and for DeLonn Crosby - the founder of EduCharacter - it was that change that sparked what would become EduCharacter. For DeLonn, perpetuating his business career couldn’t compare to the satisfaction of helping his family, and others, learn via technology.

Early learning is critical for a child’s development, and sadly too many lack the educational engagement needed, prior to age six, where 90% of brain development occurs. EduCharacter is an early learning platform that uses a voice-interactive plush robot to help kids build social, emotional, and language skills. Many describe the platform as a "child's 1st computer" or a "physical, interactive and screenless version of Mr. Rogers." To Delonn, the product is the head start students need to set them on a path towards long term success.

This technology puts young learners on a path to success by encouraging a growth mindsets. Meet the robot and the team at the next Beta Showcase. Tickets here -> https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2018-startup-week-betashowcase-tickets-49879579164
