"We love having a credible set of numbers that we can use to talk to our board! When we tell them that foreigners, students or teachers are leaving, they are skeptical. Venture gives us really valuable reference points that we can point to and say "look, it's not just us saying this, it's happening across the sector!""
~ An international school subscriber
"Your report has created a real buzz in our school and everyone has been talking about it. What they like the most is that it's not a boring McKinsey type report. It's down to earth and you guys are obviously part of the sector and not outsiders. We really like that"

"When we signed up for subscription, we did so mostly for the opportunities to increase exposure to our school. In reality though, I've personally benefitted from having the Venture team support and share resources on so many of the projects I'm developing myself. Their voice in the sector is always appreciated, but I also value their discretion and nuance on more complicated challenges."
