Masai School Looks To Bridge Skill Gap Among India’s Aspiring Techies With $5 Mn Series A
Summary
The company is now looking to expand its footprint and launch new programmes in UI, UX, data analytics and product management in the next few months. The company will also launch various support and feeder programmes free of cost to enable equal learning opportunity for aspiring professionals. “The funding will primarily be used to expand our curriculum and contribute to the transitioning of our business model from being a coding centric to a career focused institute,” Shukla added. Among the tech-centric skill development platforms, it primarily competes with Pesto Tech, founded in 2017 by Ayush Jaiswal and Andrew Linfoot (who exited the company in 2020). The company offers a 4-months-long engineering training course that prepares Indian students for high paying remote jobs in India and abroad.
