iCode, a coding and STEM learning program for kids, has signed its 100th franchise agreement, furthering its national footprint and reinforcing its commitment to advancing STEM education across the United States.
The newest location will open in Allen, Texas. This 100th iCode location will be owned and operated by tech sector veteran Saleema Syed, who brings more than 25 years of industry experience to her new franchise.
“We were drawn to iCode because it doesn’t just focus on technical skills; it also addresses the soft skills often overlooked in the tech community,” said the Syed. “After researching other educational models, we recognized that iCode offers a comprehensive approach that includes creativity, problem-solving and collaboration. We’re excited to introduce iCode to Allen, where we can bring fun to coding and help prepare kids not just for school, but for life.”
In 2024, iCode has already signed agreements for 10 new locations, marking a noteworthy milestone as it reaches its 100th location. This achievement underscores iCode's strong presence and popularity as a frontrunner in technology education, showcasing its enduring influence on communities across the country. Looking ahead, iCode is set to maintain its momentum throughout 2024, aiming to secure over 200 additional deals by the close of 2025.
“Reaching 100 locations is a landmark achievement for any franchise,” said Abid Abedi, CEO of iCode. “It represents a strong brand presence and demonstrates a proven track record of sustainability and success across multiple markets. For iCode, achieving this number signifies the essential nature of our educational model and its adaptability in different regions, appealing to a broad spectrum of business owners, parents and students who understand the need for future-ready learning.”
