REACH wins at 2023 SXSW Pitch Competition

REACH Pathways, Chicago Scholars’ startup focused on our innovative new app, REACH, won the Future of Work category at the 2023 SXSW Pitch competition.

REACH is intended to bring Chicago Scholars’ curriculum to more students in Chicago and beyond. Through a ‘metaversity’ setting and a video-game-like approach, REACH rewards students for completing real-world tasks that will help them get into college and start a career. Partner colleges and businesses will have the ability to interact with a diverse pool of talent, and students will get the opportunity to explore the options available to them early in their educational journeys.
