#37, Boris Walbaum, Founder, Forward College: Preparing Students to Have an Impact...Now
Launched in September 2021, Boris Walbaum founded Forward College, a pan-European university designed to develop all forms of human intelligences and skills. Students learn in small groups with full-time teachers, a high dose of formative assessment, and one-to-one tutoring. Boris believes that education should be the most meaningful experience for students but also for the world at large. With students demanding an opportunity to have an impact, and with a sense of urgency, Forward College aims to help them develop the skills to practice this.
