We are the people who build something different

How we started BSD

Founded in 2013 by Chris Geary and Nickey Khemchandani, BSD Education has come a long way from its beginnings in Hong Kong.

Starting as a coding academy for students living locally, we soon saw the gaps in education where too often educators struggle with how to bring ever-changing technology to their classrooms and schools confidently and with an in-dept curriculum.

10 years later, we have expanded our global presence across 24 countries and now work with nearly 7,000 schools developing technology skills with an online learning environment, ready-made customizable curriculum, and professional development.

We named our company with the ethos of building something different, BSD for short, in education. With this in mind, we now work closely with both students and teachers, with a collective aim to close the educational gaps between education, technology and future careers for the next generations.
