ShareToronto-based innovators at Rellie selected by global growth accelerator Creative Destruction Lab to scale a revolutionary digital solution
December 7, 2023 – Toronto, ON – Rellie, an educational technology company, has been chosen by Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management to participate in an exclusive mentoring process to translate Rellie’s educational platform from novel innovation to vital everyday tool for students and teachers to achieve success in school.
“Earning this rare opportunity to be guided by seasoned entrepreneurs, researchers and experts in various fields through CDL, is a turning point for our company,” says Kevin Prokopetz, CEO of Rellie. “By harnessing the power of automation and artificial intelligence, our educational platform is poised to revolutionize how a student’s learning strengths and needs are identified and accurately addressed,” he says, drawing on his own lived experience as a father of two and the spouse of a teacher.
Using next-generation technology, Rellie’s leading-edge Power to Achieve and Learn (PAL) platform has redesigned how a student’s learning style is determined and captured. It then translates those key data points into customized solutions and strategies for teachers and students in the classroom and parents at home.
“This transformative technology has the capability to positively impact a student, including neurodiverse learners, across their entire academic journey,” says Bill Schnoor, lawyer, partner and former co-chair of the Goodwin Tech & LS practice. “CDL-Estonia is buoyed by the game-changing potential of this platform to maximize and optimize meaningful teaching and learning, through key ages and stages, across the education arena.”
The Rellie team, chosen among 13 other start-ups in the Digital Society Stream at CDL, is the only educational technology company selected, and will be working with mentors (entrepreneurs, researchers and scientists) at CDL-Estonia to develop, test and enhance their business model and software platform, using real-world data.
