About Innovamat

Innovamat is the leading global K-12 edtech startup transforming how mathematics is learned and taught in schools. We bring cutting-edge pedagogy and instructional design into the classroom through a unique, research-backed PreK-8 curriculum that replaces traditional textbooks with hands-on, high-engagement learning experiences.

After launching in the U.S. just two years ago, we've already partnered with 60+ public school districts - including Chicago Public Schools - with a 100% pilot-to-adoption conversion rate. We've proven product-market fit. Now we're scaling fast: from 40,000 students today to 200,000+ next year, and far beyond.

We're a team of 320+ educators and builders across 9 countries, united by one mission: make high-quality math instruction accessible to every student. In the U.S., we're a hybrid team of ~35 people across New York, California, Chicago, and beyond.

Strategic & Special Projects

Partner with Leadership

* Sense what's happening in the field and surface insights that inform strategy
