    IPEVO is a whole new approach to classroom technology. We believe that classroom technology should allow educators to do more at a lower price. IPEVO makes versatile teaching tools instead of specialized “classroom equipment.” We go beyond the usual conventions of classroom technology — large, expensive, specialized and complex — to rethink simple and flexible solutions for interactive teaching in today’s classrooms. IPEVO’s interactive teaching tools empower educators and teachers with radically affordable and compact technology that is simple, intuitive and flexible, so that precious time and resources can be wholly dedicated to teaching. We intend to make educational technology accessible and available to all. As of August 2012, IPEVO products are used in 38,443 or nearly 30% of all K-12 schools in the USA.

IPEVO designs technology-based teaching tools and related accessories for educators.
