Prestigious International Awards Program Recognizes Outstanding Educational Technology Products and Companies
LOS ANGELES, June 8, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- EdTech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies and solutions in the global educational technology market, today announced that it has selected Logitech as winner of the "Overall EdTech Company of the Year" award in the 5th annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards program.
Logitech partners with hundreds of students and educators from all over the world to design tools — from concept to final prototype — to ensure solutions are grounded in insight and tested to solve real classroom challenges. Logitech products are built to withstand the rigors of student life and to support both teacher and school IT needs.
Logitech's education-first design choices also decrease common classroom technology frustrations that can interrupt teaching and learning. Their solutions feature out-of-the-box compatibility, seamless interoperability, and fast-charging batteries that are made to last a full school day. Additionally, Logitech for Education products include packaging that makes it easy to deploy and store when not in use.
Logitech's educational tools are durable and have the ability to withstand the realities of the school year including drops and accidents. Their products are designed to be easily cleaned and can be used in small and large-group settings of classrooms or individual learning environments. Additionally, Logitech aligns its design and product development closely with initiatives from educational policy makers and leading education associations.
"Students and teachers are often frustrated when district and school leaders repurpose existing technology that was designed for adults. More technology is being used in classrooms and districts and schools than in prior years. Educators and students all deserve tools that have been designed with the student in mind - built for learning and the classroom," said James Johnson, managing director, EdTech Breakthrough. "Logitech is delivering breakthrough, modern technology solutions for this new digital learning landscape – creating well-rounded, durable, flexible solutions that are both comfortable and functional for students and teachers. We extend our sincerest of congratulations to the Logitech team on taking home the marquee 2023 EdTech Breakthrough Award win."
The mission of the EdTech Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work and success in a range of educational technology categories, including Student Engagement, School Administration, Adaptive Learning, STEM Education, Remote Learning, Career Preparation and many more. This year's program attracted more than 2,400 nominations from over 16 different countries throughout the world.
"At Logitech for Education, we design education-first solutions that meet the needs of students and educators today, and adapt as learning environments evolve tomorrow. We are thrilled to accept the 'Overall EdTech Company of the Year' award, knowing that this is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team. We are especially thankful to the educators and students, who provide us with invaluable input throughout our design process," said Michele Hermann, Vice President, Head of Education Solutions at Logitech. "With our rigorous designed for learning, built for schools approach, educators can count on Logitech for Education solutions that make the education experience more accessible, more meaningful, and more impactful."
Logitech's breakthrough edtech solutions include products such as the Logitech Pen, which combines the nostalgia of a Number Two pencil with its "no-pairing-needed" design, the Rugged Combo keyboard case with a pluck-proof keyboard and military-grade drop protection to withstand the realities of the classroom and Zone Learn Headset, a comfortable, micro-adjustable fit wired headset, with audio designed for educational applications, and a fully swappable, upgradeable design.
