NC IDEA WINNER: Lea(R)n, Clinical Trials for EdTech

The NC IDEA funds will support the development and evaluation of Lea(R)n’s first product, a software for collecting and disseminating rapid feedback from educators on tools they’re using in the classroom. The grant will also help the company secure intellectual property around the tools.

Rectanus is planning a beta test this summer and a full launch in the fall. He also hopes to close a $500,000 round.

Says Cambier: “We all felt this is big and innovative and if he can pull it off, its going to be meaningful.”
