LINGO develops hands-on, project-based coding kits and curriculum for learners aged 13 and up, focused on fields such as artificial intelligence, space systems, and environmental monitoring. The company is led by founder and CEO Aisha Bowe, a former NASA rocket scientist and future Blue Origin astronaut. LINGO’s programs are already being implemented with partners including General Dynamics Information Technology, Siemens Healthineers, Leidos, and Howard University. The business positions itself to bridge the gap between traditional education and industry readiness by delivering accessible STEM tools that emphasize real-world skills. The recent financing will fund expansion of its kits and curriculum and support scaling into more schools and homes. The company frames its growth as part of a broader push to increase access to STEM opportunities for women and minority students.
