The University Council, comprising respected members like Adeola Ogunwole, Stephanie Kaiser, Celine Flores Willers, Kai Roemmelt, and Eliot Gattegno, plays a crucial role in furthering the University's mission for a better tomorrow.

Furthermore, Tomorrow's Education was honored to be among the Top 20 finalists of the prestigious GSV Cup Elite, presented by Google Cloud, GSV Ventures, HolonIQ, and HubSpot for Startups.
