At the British Educational Training and Technology (BETT) Show in January, Takuya Homma, marketing director at international edtech startup Quipper School delivered a speech about why Southeast Asia is leading the world in mobile learning. For those who don’t know, BETT is a yearly convention in the UK that showcases the use of information technology in education. Homma was one of the few speakers talking about edtech in Southeast Asia.
