The Lycée Français de New York offers a bilingual French and American education of the highest standard with a mission to prepare students of many origins to be thinkers, innovators, and leaders, at home in the world.

We have found that schools are like airplanes. Generally speaking, schools are financially sustainable when they are filled to capacity, but not sustainable when they are under capacity. Watch us explain two use cases about enrollment management in a 4-minute video here.

Inspired by Gapminder, the famous Hans Rosling visualization about life expectancy and income, we decided to make an interactive visual that shows how billionaires and GDP by country have changed over time. You can interact with the data below and watch Tom explain it here with a 2-minute video.

Like Warren Buffett wouldn’t invest in just one stock, we wouldn’t tell our retail clients to invest in just one city. In fact, we believe that geographic diversification is critical to success and that geospatial investments should be considered through the lens of the 2×2 matrix, shown below.

Quadrant 1: Areas where your competitors are dominant and you (our client) is not. Invest high as these are markets of high potential.
Quadrant 2: Areas where both you and your competitors are strong. Invest high, as these are markets where you need to maintain position.
Quadrant 3: Areas where you are strong compared to your competitors. Invest moderate as these are client-dominated markets even though opportunity is not as large as those in quadrants 1 and 2.
Quadrant 4: Areas where you and your competitors are weak, which indicates most likely that these are small markets. Invest low, unless your strategy is specifically focused on winning small markets.

You can interact with the dashboard below:

In the example above, we would say the WP client should be investing heavily in Houston, Miami, Washington DC, and Dallas (Quadrant 1), where their competitors are very strong and they are not. They should also invest heavily in Chicago, LA, and NY (Quadrant 2), where they need to maintain their strong position, relative to their competitors. Moderate investment should be made in Quadrant 3 (Pittsburgh and others), where the client clearly outpaces their competitors, purely to maintain their position.

Portfolio School, a Webster Pacific (WP) client since 2021, is an independent school based in the heart of NYC offering top tier education for students in grades K-6 using a project-based learning approach.

Portfolio has been heavily involved in building the data-driven strategy, which includes: demographics, income, competitors, transit networks, and proximity to urban green space.
