upGrad

upGrad was founded in 2015 by Ronnie Screwvala, Mayank Kumar, and Phalgun Kompalli with a view to “to impact the lives of working professionals by helping them upskill while they work.” The issue was that there was a significant gap between what was taught in business schools and the actual challenges encountered by entrepreneurs. As a result, the founders decided to create upGrad to solve this problem.

The goal is for every entrepreneur in India who wants to earn an MBA or specialized training in d to be able to do so without leaving their employment. Each of the programmes offered by upGrad is in conjunction with a world-class university, such as IIT Madras, Duke CE, Deakin University, Liverpool John Moores University, and others.

According to Deloitte's evaluation of upGrad results, 5 out of 6 learners experience favourable professional progress. After completing their MBA programmes, upGrad students receive an average income increase of 52%.

FireflyLearning

“There are one billion school students in the world and the vast majority are studying the same way their ancestors were 150 years ago.”

Simon Hay and Joe Mathewson, co-founders of Firefly, created the education technology solution out of their "own frustrations" regarding offline learning while completing their GCSEs, and they continue to receive full grades for international scale-up success.

Firefly, a London-based EdTech firm formed in 2000 by two 15-year-old students, is driven by the global social impact it achieves rather than meeting preset financial targets.

The platform provides a fully interactive experience for teachers, students, and parents, allowing them to assign homework, track student progress, send feedback, and share learning resources.
