About Us
Ignited was founded in 1985 to focus on teachers and their critical role in improving STEM education. We create teacher experiences to transform how they see companies, understand STEM in the workplace and teach these critical skills.
Over more than three decades, that initial mission continues. We work with companies, universities and K-16 schools to:
- Engage employees and inspire teachers as they work together on real projects inside companies and university research labs
- Help companies, foundations and individual donors support under-served schools in unique and meaningful ways
- Grow a more diverse and equitable talent pool of students who are equipped to work in a variety of careers
