Ever since the Government of India allowed a 100 per cent FDI on Education Sector, it has seen some top-notch people joining hands to make India a literate country, which in the end, opens up the world of endless possibilities for every citizen.
This is the era of “education revolution” i.e today; education in India is not only promising w.r.t. business but also accepted as a ladder to long-term success and credibility in society. Even though the current education landscape may require innovations and a better purpose, we can’t deny the fact that it has seen a drastic development in the past few years.
India has over 250 million school going students with a number of schools and colleges ranging up to 39,050 and 903 respectively and Gross Enrolment Ratio in Higher Education of 25.8 per cent in 2017-2018. With such a drastic improvement in education in India over the years, India’s Education Sector has opened up as a great opportunity for aspiring businessmen, willing to flourish their life as an ‘Edupreneur’, or ‘Education Entrepreneur’.
It is only because of these budding Edupreneurs that Indian kids & students can grow up in an environment which is interactive and educative both. The inclusion of AI & AR in the education space has disrupted the way education was being perceived in India over the past few decades. Today, from preparing for NEET or Engineering exams to setting up the foundation of a new-bee; these education start-ups are catering to all the age groups.
