Together, the two organizations are poised to revolutionize how technology serves education and the public sector to drive unprecedented growth and innovation.

Ednetics extends the national reach of the MGT technology platform to more than 23 million K-12 students, strengthening MGT's category-of-one positioning as the premier SLED technology provider in the U.S.
