CSGF Builds "Hybrid" Expertise with DreamBox Learning
In April 2010, CSGF acquired DreamBox Learning, Inc. in partnership with education philanthropist and Netflix CEO Reed Hastings. The acquisition was the first of its kind for CSGF and represented an opportunity to extend our emerging investment strategy to help develop more high-performing "next generation" school models. DreamBox offers a powerful adaptive learning technology - one that identifies and addresses individual students' learning needs and helps reduce the overall operating expense associated with a school - to CMOs, districts and schools nationwide.  To learn more about the acquisition, click here.
