Creative Business Network is bringing together scientists, professionals, corporates, start-ups, investors and institutions to find the best tools that solve education problems by combining Play & Learn.

Cultural creative entrepreneurs and startups can indeed implement and scale their solutions joining their forces with the many people that are changing the landscape of learning and play with their projects, in each area of the world.

We launched a Play & Learn community, to help startups, companies and institutions working on education, games and learning to grow and implement innovation projects. On the 10th of November we are hosting a webinar where start-ups will pitch to investors. Intrigued? Sign up to watch free of charge here.
