STEM Coalition
• STEM Coalition believe that all nations must improve the way our students learn science, mathematics, technology and engineering and that the business, education, and STEM communities must work together to achieve this goal.
HP Catalyst Initiative• HP is building a global network of consortia that is
developing more effective approaches to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. The goal is to transform STEM learning and teaching, and to inspire students to use their technical and creative ingenuity to address urgent social challenges in their communities and around the world.

Consortiums
Creating global STEMexcitement and standards is
the grand vision of HP Catalystproject
