Daphne Koller United States of America

Daphne Koller, a child prodigy from Israel, started her first experiences in programming at the age of 12 when she finally got bored with school education and her father sent her for the educational program at Stanford University. When Daphne was thirteen she had already become a student at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and at the age of 27 she joined professor staff at Stanford University. Her general research area is artificial intelligence.

But Daphne got the world-wide fame only in 2012, after the launch of the incredibly successful educational platform Coursera. "Our idea was to make quality education accessible to everybody, to give people the opportunity to change their lives for the better" said Daphne Koller.

Today, the platform Coursera, that became a symbol of a new wave of education, offers the courses to more than 7 million people who get the opportunity to change their lives. Coursera offers free courses from the best professors of the most famous universities in the world – Stanford, Princeton and Yale. Thus, Coursera also changes the model of education, making it more interactive and modern.
