“With the creation of a common national test for admission into engineering colleges across the country, it is estimated that over 2.8million students would require Learnpedia’s services. We aim to use the funds to improve content and add additional products to our offerings portfolio,” said Krishna Rao Akula.
Learnpedia, founded in 2012 by serial entrepreneur Krishna Rao Akula, aims at narrowing the learning gap faced by students by providing high quality learning aids and test analytics across digital platforms: DVD and on branded tablets. Its flagship product, JEE Studymate, launched last year, has received praise from students and teachers alike.
