"Funded into existence"

This paper about the practices of edtech investors in higher education is worth your time if you think a lot about how things happen (or not) across the learning and education landscape.

If you had a bajillion dollars to "fund into existence" a future of learning or education, what version of it would you go for?

And, since odds are that you're a few dollars short, what could you do instead to make that vision more real?

(Hint / pep talk: even the fattest, greediest cats in the edtech investor circles lose 90% of their original focus and vision over as little as ten years. So even with a couple hundred quid and a bucketload of attitude, it's all still to play for.)
