Packback is a Chicago based education technology start-up using AI to awaken and fuel the lifelong curiosity in every student.
At Packback, we believe every student has the potential to change the world when they become a lifelong learner. Right now, graduation is often treated as the end of education, when graduation should really be the start of a lifetime of learning. Students are taught to answer questions and follow directions but don’t always learn how to question.
But when students are given the opportunity to be bold and follow their curiosity toward the things that interest them, everything changes. Empowering students to ask BIG questions sets them up to go on to become the next great innovators in their fields after graduation whether that means creating a name for themselves in the art world, building up a new business, taking on world hunger or turning their telescopes to the sky to discover water on Mars. Our job is to create spaces that awaken and fuel fearless curiosity. Where that curiosity leads is entirely up to them.
