Reach Capital has closed its fourth fund with $215 million to invest in education startups. The team is also looking to back more companies using generative AI in education, Reach Capital founding partner Esteban Sosnik told Insider. Near the end of 2022, edtech investing had just reached $8.89 billion in 2022, according to PitchBook. While generalist investors still have some interest in edtech deals, some of the hype has worn off. Reach has also backed several edtech startups that went on to become unicorns, or reach a valuation of over $1 billion, including Outschool, ClassDojo, and Handshake.
