ABOUT US

We founded Piper in 2014 with a simple vision:

To create experiences around learning with technology that are hands-on, effective, and fun.

Since then, Piper has grown into an award-winning EdTech company based in San Francisco, CA committed to providing quality STEAM educational opportunities to students around the globe.
