Jamie Rosenberg is a visionary entrepreneur and a two-time founder of technology platforms that have transformed how public funds reach communities in need to drive large-scale, systemic change. He is the founder and Executive Chairman of ClassWallet, a transformative digital wallet financial technology company reimagining how public funds are distributed to citizens, and spent.

ClassWallet is the leading platform for education choice programs, used to implement over 20 such programs—including the nation’s first universal education savings account program. In addition, 8% of U.S. public school teachers have ClassWallet accounts.
