Avendus Capital Advises Byju’s on Its Series C Fund Raise.

“We are thrilled that Sequoia India and Sofina have backed BYJU’s, because it shows their  resolute commitment to backing disruptive ideas and great teams,”

“India has the largest K12 education system in the world, but we consistently rank low in all global assessments. We started BYJU’s as a mission to address these learning gaps - to make learning fun and engaging by making it contextual, visual and not just theoretical. Learning is currently driven by the fear of exams, and not the love for learning. We are excited to see the popularity of the app among students and the way it has made them fall in love with learning. We are especially excited by our new content that will significantly increase student engagement in a way that has never been done before.”

“At Sequoia we have always partnered with people with disruptive ideas and big vision. What excites us about Byju is not just the market potential but also his sheer commitment and passion to democratize access to education in India in a way that’s never been done before. Byju and his team are pushing the boundaries for how immersive media and technology can deliver superior education for millions of students, anywhere and anytime.”
