Masai School secures funding from 21 angel investors
Edtech platform Masai School recently raised an undisclosed amount in funding from a clutch of 21 angel investors including Kunal Shah (CRED), Vijay Shekhar Sharma (Paytm),
The startup plans on using the capital raised to build a more robust curriculum for its users to access.
Masai School co-founder and CEO Prateek Shukla said, “For an institute that strictly and solely focuses on outcomes, it is a great endorsement to have the right kind of industry leaders to help and support the market itself. With the advocacy and support from these stalwarts, bridging the gap between educational institutes and technology companies to meet real time industry requirements is not far away.”
Founded in June 2019, Bengaluru-based Masai School utilizes the Income Share Agreement (ISA) model to create an ‘outcome-oriented learning approach’.
Commenting on the investment, Pine Labs CEO Amrish Rau said, “Coding schools such as Masai School have started to kick-start a movement altogether in the cohort-based courses market segment. We are all aware of the shortage in quality education for software and technology, and how hard it is for the technology and IT industry startups to hire the right talent even at entry-level positions. We want to enable this movement and help Masai lead this from the forefront.”
