Educators worry about the ethics of AI in education, while students are concerned about privacy
Over 50% of students said they've violated their school's AI policy, including 63% of high schoolers
Read more...Prezi, a San-Francisco and Budapest-based startup, which makes cloud-based presentation software, announced Wednesday, that it has hit the 5 million user mark, since its 2009 launch. Its global reach is primarily extended to users in the U.S., Colombia, Spain, England and Hungary.
Prezi is the brain-child of Prezi co-founder, Adam Somlai-Fischer, a Hungarian-born architect and visual artist. Sweden-born, Peter Arvay joined the company as CEO in 2008.
In 2010, Gensler Architecture designed the new Facebook campus using Prezi.
Prezi was funded by TED Conferences, as well as Sunstone Capital, in an undisclosed round in 2009.
I asked Peter Arvay, CEO to join VatorNews for a conversation.
TED curator Chris Anderson used Prezi in his 2010 TED Global keynote last year "How Web Video Powers Global innovation", and numerous other TED speakers are using Prezi too. The great thing about TED is that our missions are so similar. We’re all about helping people to share ideas, and they are all about ideas worth spreading. We both want to improve the state of the world through sharing more interesting ideas. We appreciate TED's support as an investor in Prezi.
Additional funding?
We are presently speaking to investors, but cannot name them.
