Brain science, research, and economic return on investment has made a compelling case for investing in early childhood development and programming. The sector is emerging with new entrepreneurs committed to solving big problems and new investments from philanthropy, impact investors, and venture capital. With incredible momentum in early childhood, we are excited to share the latest trends, provide an inside look at the state of the field, and offer the latest ideas in venture support and impact strategies.
