Why EdTech Companies Attend BRILLIANT Festival

Connect with the people who shape technology in schools

EdTech companies attend BRILLIANT because it brings them face-to-face with the people who decide how technology is used in schools.

BRILLIANT brings together teachers, school leaders and industry partners in one place, creating an environment where EdTech organisations can demonstrate how their tools work in real classroom settings rather than simply promoting them.

Engage directly with educators

One of the biggest advantages of BRILLIANT is the opportunity to directly engage with teachers. The educators who attend are actively looking for practical ideas and tools that support teaching and learning. Exhibitors have the chance to demonstrate their platforms live, hear honest feedback from practitioners and show how their technology helps deliver real classroom outcomes. That kind of dialogue is difficult to achieve through traditional marketing or online channels.

Contribute to the future of education

BRILLIANT also gives EdTech companies the opportunity to take part in conversations about the future of teaching and learning. Through panels, demonstrations and discussions, organisations can share their perspectives on digital learning, classroom innovation and the skills students will need in the future. Rather than focusing only on products, companies can contribute ideas and expertise to an audience that values thoughtful discussion about education.

Build relationships across the education ecosystem

Whether it’s engineering, manufacturing, digital technology or the creative industry, technology is evolving sectors at a rapid pace, and with this, we are facing a growing skills shortage.

BRILLIANT Festival aims to stop young people leaving school without fully understanding the opportunities available to them across modern industries, or how the subjects they study can connect to real careers.

By sharing your insight with our attendees, you can help educators to understand:

  • How industries are evolving

  • The skills employers increasingly need

  • The opportunities available to young people

  • How classroom learning can connect to real careers

An opportunity to demonstrate your impact

Because BRILLIANT focuses on the journey from early education through to careers, companies can show how their technology supports learning at different stages. This helps educators understand where tools fit within the wider learning experience and how they can support students as they develop skills over time.

Perhaps most importantly, BRILLIANT creates a positive and forward-looking environment. The audience is interested not just in the technology available today, but in how education needs to evolve. For EdTech companies developing tools that support modern classrooms, digital skills and creative learning, this is a natural place to showcase their work.

Be part of a forward-looking community

More than an exhibition

For EdTech organisations, attending BRILLIANT is about more than exhibiting. It is an opportunity to engage directly with educators, contribute to conversations about the future of learning and build lasting relationships across the education and technology community.
