General Assembly San Francisco is at the forefront of reshaping education with a mission to transform thinkers into creators through innovative programs in technology, business, and design. Founded in 2012, this educational institution began as an entrepreneurial hub in New York City and has since grown to operate nine campuses spanning three continents.
The company provides an array of learning opportunities, including full-time immersive programs, long-form courses, and workshops aimed at equipping individuals with 21st-century skills—ranging from web development and user experience design to data science and digital marketing. This positions General Assembly uniquely within the Design, Education, and Internet industries.
Their commitment to education caught the strategic interest of significant investors such as Guardian Life and Prudential Financial, who participated in a corporate round investment on January 29, 2018. This backing reflects confidence in their educational model and future growth prospects.
