“Our team loved TEAMology’s student-first approach and focus on social, emotional, and mental health outcomes. Feedback from current customers has us excited that this platform is a winning solution for teachers, counselors, students, and their families alike. We’re backing an incredibly smart team that is deeply versed in holistic student well-being as well as EdTech sales,” said Jennifer Abele, managing partner at VC 414. The importance of including a partner with market expertise was key for TEAMology in this round. The Supes’ Fund is made up of retired superintendents and education-focused experts who offer a critical perspective on TEAMology. “One of the most pressing concerns we consistently hear from superintendents since the pandemic is that they lack sufficient resources to address the rising student mental health concerns. We are invested in TEAMology because we believe that Linsey and her team have come up with a key solution to this challenge, and we want them to have the opportunity to engage with more district leaders across the country,” said Doug Roberts, Managing Partner, Supes’ Fund.
TEAMology’s mission is to understand and improve emotional health to give every child access to the support they need to succeed
in school, career, and life.
“We are ecstatic about this new chapter and the confidence and support we’ve received from our investors,” said Linsey Covert, Founder and CEO of TEAMology. “This investment not only validates our business model but also empowers us to advance our mission of providing access to quality social, emotional, and mental health support for our K-8 students. We are committed to leveraging these funds to drive innovation and deliver unparalleled value to our users. The education world needs the unwavering support of trusted partners to support all students and staff at a time where mental health and wellness should be a priority for effective learning.”
About TEAMology
Established in 2016, TEAMology launched as one of the first companies to emerge from Penn State University’s Invent Penn State commercialization ecosystem. Since 2016, TEAMology has focused on better understanding how to develop a personalized solution to meet students’ social, emotional, and mental health needs. This research and development led to the creation of what is now known as TEAMtalk – an AI + human technology that provides kids with an opportunity to directly connect and be supported by the six TEAMology characters that grow with them. Partnerships such as Penn State and the public media company WQED, home of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” are helping to expand the important work of TEAMology.
