About\xa0Belkin
While the majority of companies in the education hardware tech space focus on one particular area, Belkin looks at a classroom trying to integrate technology and asks the question - how could we make this easier for the teachers and students? Our solutions address collaboration (Table stage stands and stage app), protection (AirProtect Sleeve) and connectivity. For more on how our technology enables a next-gen learning environment,\xa0click here.
Education is near and dear to the heart of Belkin's Founder and CEO Chet Pipkin.\xa0\xa0\xa0Chet dedicates several hours of his day on EDU issues. Chet\u2019s extensive nonprofit work revolves around youth, education, and closing the achievement gap. He is a founder of the DaVinci family of charter schools in Hawthorne, CA. The schools include a campus for STEM, Design, Communications, and a new model for K-8 education. He was also instrumental in planning Internet access to all California public schools as a member of the California Education Technology Task Force.
