HEX (originally The Hacker Exchange) runs education programs in innovation, entrepreneurship and employability. Its offerings include online upskilling bootcamps, accelerators and work-simulation internships, alongside in-person global programs in cities such as Bangkok, Singapore and Ho Chi Minh City. Many programs carry university credit.
HEX was co-founded in Melbourne in 2017 by Jeanette Cheah and Jaclyn Benstead. It started as a study-abroad startup and moved to digital delivery in 2020.
In January 2025 HEX acquired Sydney edtech EntryLevel, bringing EntryLevel's AI-driven, cohort-based learning platform together with HEX's programs.
