Press Room

France Travail invites you to meet EdCortex during Digital Week, for an information session on cognitive intelligence applied to training.

EdCortex will present how cognitive intelligence shapes training modules, the skills this still little-known field calls for, and the roles already in place and open to hire.

Friday, 2 October 2026, from 9:30 to 11:00, at the France Travail agency in Cachan, 19 rue de la Gare — opposite RER B, Arcueil-Cachan. Open to everyone, including executives, with no prerequisites. About an hour to an hour and a half, with time for questions.

We're excited to welcome Partnerships in Education and Resilience (PEAR) as a new EdCortex partner. Originally incubated by Prof. Gil Noam at Harvard University and McLean Hospital, PEAR brings deep expertise in developmental science, assessment, resilience, and translating research into practical tools that help people and organizations thrive.

Through this partnership, PEAR's developmental assessment expertise will become part of the EdCortex ecosystem, complementing our work at the intersection of neuroscience, cognitive profiling, adaptive learning, workforce development, and employee well-being.

Together, we aim to bring richer developmental insight into the workplace, helping organizations better support the people behind performance.

The National Organization on Disability featured EdCortex ahead of Technology and the Disability Experience, where attendees can test products designed to support people with disabilities.

The event is on Thursday, October 1, 2026 at The Times Center in New York City. EdCortex is honoured to take part.

At UNESCO Digital Learning Week in Paris, EdCortex made the case that learning apps are built for a child alone, while children learn best with the adults around them. Research shows that much of a child's progress comes from how parents and caregivers respond, moment to moment.

We proposed a privacy-first tool that maps the caregiver's teaching profile and the child's learning profile, spots where they clash, and gives them a task they can only solve together. Neuro-inclusive by design, it works for every family, is tailored to neurodivergent children, and is simple enough to run on a family's phone.

Honored to deliver the keynote at the Interdisciplinary Research Conference on One Health (IRCOH 2026) in Lahore, Pakistan, bringing together 32 vice chancellors and researchers on human, animal, and environmental health.

The talk highlighted brain health, the brain economy, and the role neuroscience can play. A special recognition was also received from Punjab's Higher Education Minister, Rana Sikander Hayat.

We're thrilled to welcome Sir Nick Gibb — Rt Hon, former UK Minister of State for Education — to the EdCortex Advisory Board.
Sir Nick's decades of experience shaping education policy and standards make him an invaluable voice as we scale our mission: delivering hyper-personalized L&D and cognitive optimization to build brain capital across the global workforce.

His strategic guidance comes at a pivotal moment for EdCortex, and we couldn't be more honored to have him on board.

Honored to share a panel with Sonia Guerriero, Natalia Kucirkova, and Ahmed Tlili at UNESCO at the annual meeting of the Global Education Coalition.
We presented findings from a first-of-its-kind survey examining how and if the EdTech sector integrates evidence-based Science of Learning (SoL) into product development.

The data reveals significant shortcomings. Despite the industry's growth, there remains a critical gap between commercial EdTech offerings and established learning sciences.
Addressing these evidence gaps is essential for ensuring digital tools actually deliver educational value.

EdCortex remains committed to bridging this gap. We partner with the EdTech sector to systematically integrate the Science of Learning and hyper-personalized learning into their product lifecycles, ensuring digital tools deliver measurable pedagogical efficacy at scale.

Our full publication is forthcoming. Stay tuned for the detailed report.
Grateful to Audrey Zhang and Kelly Shiohira for their instrumental contributions to this research.

The leading information management journal, Archimag, has named EdCortex "Startup of the Month" for February 2026.

This recognition highlights our impact on the French corporate ecosystem through four strategic pillars:

• Cognitive Workforce Optimization: Boosting efficiency while reducing cognitive fatigue and turnover.

• Learning Optimization: Leveraging cognitive science and AI to enhance professional training.

• Inclusion & Neurodiversity: Supporting the 30% of employees with cognitive vulnerabilities by monitoring cognitive load.

EdCortex was honored to take the stage at Learning Technologies France in Paris!
We were grateful for the opportunity to present the latest status of R&D across the EdTech sector and discuss the essential roles that Cognitive Neuroscience and Cognitive Modeling play in shaping the next generation of neuro-inclusive upskilling platforms.

Grateful for the opportunity to speak at the upcoming Annual Meeting of the Global Alliance on the Science of Learning for Education, presenting the preliminary results of the first of its kind Survey on Science of Learning for EdTech Providers

Honoured to join UNESCO Digital Learning Week to share how we at EdCortex are exploring ways to scale the impact of Science of Learning through Machine Learning methods.
By combining insights from neuroscience with cognitive performance data, we aim to anticipate learning needs and provide neuro-inclusive hyper-personalised pathways to maximize the learning KPIs.

Grateful to Kelly Shiohira, director of Global Science of Learning Education Network, for organising this insightful panel session.

Delighted to share that EdCortex has officially been granted the prestigious “Jeune Entreprise Innovante de Rupture” (JEIR) designation — a mark of excellence awarded by the French government to companies driving scientific progress and innovation through impactful R&D

EdCortex, in partnership with UNESCO’s Global Alliance on the Science of Learning for Education, is officially conducting a landmark survey to align global teaching practices with the latest scientific research. This collaborative initiative, executed alongside a coalition of international experts, aims to redefine the future of education through evidence-based insights.

EDCORTEX is a B2B research company specialized in bringing personalization solutions to educational technology platforms (EdTech). Its core business is leveraging cognitive neuroscience and cognitive profiling to optimize each individual's learning journey, regardless of demographic background and cognitive skills.

We’re proud to share that EdCortex is now an official member of the UNESCO Global Education Coalition!

Joining this global initiative marks a meaningful step in our mission to bring neuroscience-powered, personalized learning to more learners worldwide.

We look forward to deepening our collaborations and expanding partnerships with fellow Coalition members committed to advancing equitable, research-driven digital education.

EdCortex is proud to be awarded the restigious Bourse French Tech Émergence, a distinction that includes the highly sought-after "DeepTech" designation.
