Today at the AI Impact Summit in Delhi, during a fireside chat with UK Minister Narayanan, our CEO Mati announced the launch of the ElevenLabs Impact Program × Professors: a global initiative built to support the educators shaping how AI is taught, questioned, and understood.
Behind most career successes, is a professor who shaped how we think: Someone who made complex ideas clearer, and who challenged us by asking the right questions.
As voice AI becomes part of how people learn, create, and communicate, professors will once again shape how this technology is understood and used.
What Is the Impact Program × Professors?
The Impact Program × Professors is a global, education-first initiative designed to support university educators using voice AI in teaching and research.
Participating professors receive:
- Free ElevenLabs Pro access for one academic year
- The ability to provide time-bound access to students or research participants
- The option to join our public Educator Community and share a classroom use case
The goal is simple: support thoughtful experimentation in higher education and build a global community of educators shaping how voice AI enters the classroom, not replacing thinking, but igniting it.
Already Partnering with Leading Faculty
We’re proud to already be working with professors from institutions including:
- Harvard University
- Cornell University
- University College London (UCL)
- New York University (NYU)
…and additional universities around the world.
This initiative is global, and is about championing educators everywhere who are integrating AI responsibly into teaching and research.
