How Labster Virtual Labs Are Winning Over University STEM Programs

Episode 43 of Edtech Conversations with Fexingo dives into Labster, the virtual lab simulation company that has grown from a Swiss startup into a platform used by over 3,000 universities worldwide. Lucas and Luna explore how Labster tackles a core problem in STEM education: giving students hands-on lab experience when physical labs are expensive, dangerous, or inaccessible. They break down Labster's revenue model, its shift from direct-to-student to institutional sales in 2023, and the surprising research showing students who use Labster outperform peers in physical labs on concept retention. The episode also touches on how Labster partners with publishers like McGraw Hill and Pearson to embed simulations into textbooks, and the challenge of measuring learning outcomes at scale. If you're building in edtech or selecting science tools for a curriculum, this episode is a must-listen. #Labster #VirtualLabs #STEMEducation #Edtech #ScienceSimulations #UniversityAdoption #McGrawHill #Pearson #InstitutionalSales #LearningOutcomes #Business #Technology #EdtechConversations #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #HigherEd #OnlineLearning #LabSimulations Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
