Our Story

The Conversation That Sparked a Revolution

Over a coffee meeting, two professionals found themselves debating education’s future:

• A results-driven business executive whose fascination with emerging technology revealed gaps in her children’s schooling
• A disillusioned education pioneer who had seen too many brilliant minds flattened by standardized systems

As they shared frustrations – one from a parent’s perspective, the other from within the system – their coffee break stretched into hours. The epiphany came when they realized:

The very skills that mattered most in business and technology – adaptability, strategic thinking, creative problem-solving – were exactly what conventional education overlooked.

By the end of meeting, the coffee shop’s napkins were covered in diagrams that would become Aether’s foundation.
