Overview

The global K–12 international schools sector is expanding steadily across multiple regions, driven by rising demand from globally mobile families and continued investment in new and existing schools. For US education suppliers, this represents a growing but often underexplored opportunity within international markets. 

Join Kim Lynch from ISC Research along with industry experts George DeBakey and Michael Campbell as they take a data-led look at where global school growth is happening, how the international schools landscape is evolving, and what this means for US suppliers considering or refining their international strategy. 

Bringing together market intelligence and practical perspectives, the session will help suppliers better understand the scale of the opportunity, how the US market compares globally, and how to approach international expansion in a more focused and effective way. 

In this session, you will: 

  • Understand where global K–12 school growth is happening
  • Explore key trends shaping the international schools market
  • See how the US market compares within the global landscape
  • Identify common challenges in international expansion
  • Gain a clearer framework for shaping your international strategy 

Speakers

  • Kim Lynch (Host) – Business Development Manager, ISC Research

  • George DeBakey – President at DeBakey International

  • Michael Campbell – President of Advancing Global EDU and Co-founder of Dual Bridges Academy
