ASU+GSV SUMMIT
Why We Created ASU+GSV Summit
Our mission is to create a world in which ALL people have equal access to the future, and we believe that scaled innovations in the delivery of education and workforce skills are critical to achieving that end.
The ASU+GSV Summit, co-founded by Michael Moe and Deborah Quazzo, began in 2010 with a collaboration between Global Silicon Valley (GSV) and Arizona State University (ASU).
What launched with 350 attendees at ASU’s SkySong facility has now grown to 7,000+ annual delegates in San Diego, with hundreds of sessions, events, and signature programs that spark the connections and dialogue needed to advance learning and earning transformation worldwide.

A History of Future Vision
Since its inception, the ASU+GSV Summit has dared to dash ahead of the curve in curating the conversations shaping learning and skills innovation. Each year’s Summit revolves around a central theme, reflective of the state of the global sector—ensuring “PreK to Gray” leaders both meet the moment and understand what’s next.
Bending the Arc of Human Potential
From the beginning, GSV’s North Star has been clear: expand access to education, technology, and opportunity so every person can participate meaningfully in the future.
Dawn of the Age of Digital Learning
Digital infrastructure has lowered the barriers for individuals to access opportunities. Now, coronavirus has provided an enormous catalyst to accelerate the future to today.
From B.C. to A.D.
From B.C. to A.D. (Before Coronavirus to After Disease), COVID compressed decades of change into months, pushing education across a threshold, accelerating digital adoption and permanently reshaping how learning could happen.
Ed on the Edge
As society faces accelerating change, education sits at the edge of innovation, with new technologies and models expanding access, improving outcomes, and reshaping how people learn.
Brave New World
Throw out the old maps, suspend your disbelief, and consider a world of new conditions where “being different” means being part of the global ASU+GSV innovation community.
Here Comes the Sun
There is no limit to what a group of determined, collaborative, and entrepreneurial leaders can do. When things seem darkest, they can always see a little light peeking over the horizon.
Learning at the Speed of Light
What happens when education moves so fast it can no longer be contained? We unleash a new spectrum of possibility at the intersection of artificial intelligence and human ingenuity.
The Power of Fusion
Fusion is the force created when ideas, technologies, people, and disciplines collide—accelerating innovation, expanding opportunity, and creating new possibilities for learning, earning, and human flourishing.
What the World Needs Now...
To face learning’s most important challenges, what the world needs now is what it has always needed: what every great teacher, parent, coach, and citizen does. Not quite a silver bullet, but a golden rule...
