- ByStartupStory | May 30, 2022
Bhanzu, a math-focused educational technology platform, is in talks to start a new round of funding, sources say. This decision was made months after Lightspeed and a renowned angel investor led the seed round in February.
Before 22-year-old Neelakantha Bhanu Prakash from Hyderabad, known as the world’s fastest human computer, achieved another milestone. He was selected for the famous Forbes 30 under 30 Asia list for his work at Bhanzu, math education and engineering startup he founded.
The company was founded in 2020 to eradicate the world’s math phobias and change students’ perceptions of mathematics. According to Banu, his learning methods help children improve their math skills.
The Bhanzu became the fastest human-computer in the world at just 17 years old. Also known as Usain Bolt of Mathematics, he was the first Indian to win a gold medal at the British Mind Sports Olympiad in 2020. He also broke the record previously held by Shakun Tara Devi and Scott Franzberg.
