What High Touch-High Tech does

High Touch-High Tech is a privately held, for-profit educational services franchise that delivers hands-on, mobile science education experiences to children and other age groups across the Greater Atlanta metropolitan area. Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Roswell, Georgia, the company operates under the "Science Made Fun" brand and is part of a broader national franchise network. Its core offering is a portfolio of in-person, 100% participatory STEM programs delivered at the customer's location, including preschool programs, elementary in-school field trips and labs, middle school programs, summer "Sizzlin' Science" camps, birthday parties and special events, corporate team-building events, and senior science programs, supplemented by an Online Learning offering for remote engagement.

The underlying delivery model is a mobile laboratory service rather than a software platform: instructors travel to schools, homes, event venues, and senior facilities to lead students through hands-on experiments using physical science kits. Pricing is per-session and not publicly disclosed, with customers directed to call or submit a reservation form. The go-to-market motion is primarily direct-to-consumer via the company's website (sciencemadefunatl.com) with reservation and contact forms, alongside direct outreach to schools, preschools, and summer camps for institutional bookings. The franchise also solicits business sponsorships as a supplemental funding channel.

Revenue is generated one program at a time across multiple horizontal customer segments (schools, preschools, camps, families, corporate clients, seniors, online learners), with no disclosed subscription, licensing, or recurring contract model. The company does not disclose financials, has no disclosed funding history, no institutional investors, no M&A activity, and no evidence of AI/ML-driven product capabilities. The broader franchise brand has multiple U.S. locations; the Greater Atlanta franchise's specific employee count, revenue, and ownership structure are not disclosed in the source material.

Direct peers

• Bricks 4 Kidz: Franchised STEM enrichment provider (LEGO-based engineering/building programs) offering in-school, camp, and birthday-party formats — competes for the same institutional and family enrichment dollars with a STEM-flavored but more focused product.
• Snapology: Franchised enrichment provider offering STEM/STEAM programs (including science, engineering, robotics) delivered at schools, camps, and birthday parties — competes for the same institutional and family customers with overlapping program categories.
• Science Explorers: Mobile hands-on science education provider sending scientists into schools, camps, and parties with participatory experiments — closely matched delivery model and customer segments to High Touch High Tech.
• STEM For Kids: Franchised STEM enrichment provider delivering mobile science, technology, engineering, and math programs to schools, camps, and families — same franchise-based, mobile-delivery, participatory-experiment model as High Touch High Tech.
• Club SciKidz: Atlanta-based STEM camp and program operator offering summer camps, in-school field trips, and science parties to schools and families — directly overlapping High Touch High Tech's Sizzlin' Science summer programs and elementary offerings in the same metro.
• Engineering For Kids: Franchised STEM enrichment provider offering in-school programs, after-school clubs, camps, and birthday parties in engineering and science — directly comparable franchise model and customer mix to High Touch High Tech.
• Mad Science Group: Mad Science is the closest direct competitor — a franchised mobile hands-on science education provider delivering in-school programs, camps, and birthday parties using a participatory, experiment-driven methodology nearly identical to High Touch High Tech's.

Emerging players

• Steve Spangler Science: Science education content and experiment kit provider serving schools and consumers with hands-on STEM materials — overlapping with High Touch High Tech's curriculum design and kits but operating more as a content/supply partner than a mobile delivery competitor.
• Mystery Science: K-5 digital science curriculum platform with hands-on activity kits — competes for elementary school science enrichment budgets but in a digital/subscription format rather than mobile in-person delivery.

Others

• Children's Science Center / Sci-Tech Discovery Center: Fixed-location science museums and discovery centers offer participatory science experiences — same end-customer outcome (engaged kids doing experiments) but operate from a venue rather than mobile delivery, making them more complementary than substitutive.
