Using digital content, Nalanda Learning Systems plans to expand nationally with the support of Aavishkaar Capital, said Tamal Mukherjee, CEO of Nalanda Learning Systems.
COVID-19 has reshaped the education market. While it has accelerated the adoption of education technologies, the benefits have been limited to a small section of society, he said.
In addition to ensuring sustained learning and development outcomes for children, Mukherjee said Nalanda will also enable the pre-school industry to revive, upgrade, and provide comprehensive, contemporary and early learning programs for children.
