Investment thesis
Long Term Impact backs early-stage PreK-12 EdTech founders who are underserved by a funding landscape that favors later-stage, high-growth companies. It prioritizes impact within the US public school system over maximizing financial returns, explicitly welcoming companies with slow-to-moderate growth, large impact but small markets, and revenue from school and district sales. The fund emphasizes support for under-represented founders and those committed to educational equity. Rather than chasing unicorn outcomes, it aims to support sustainable, dependable organizations. It invests via a revenue-based financing model with a modest equity component, operates without limited partners, and offers coaching drawn from Goalbook's team and the wider EdTech community.
