The ever-evolving technology is creating opportunities for both investors and students. The widespread availability of technology devices means that students can now get access to the Internet from anywhere they want, and investors are looking to capitalize on this opportunity to offer their own educational services. Tech giants have started building their own educational startups & promoting them on their sister sites, while entrepreneurs have secured funding from investors to be used for product development and expansion.
In year 2014 alone, more than 100 educational companies have pocketed funding, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down. As the Chinese are known for putting heavy emphasis on education, it’s no wonder that Chinese investment in local educational startups is at an all-time high, according to Technode, a tech blog based in China.
