Edtech firm Infinity Learn takes over Wizklub for $10M in acquisition spree

0

Looks like edtech startup, Infinity Learn, is on an acquisition spree. The company has taken over Wizklub in the latest deal.

On Wednesday, Infinity Learn, an edtech firm financed by Sri Chaitanya, announced it had taken over Wizklub for USD 10 million (about Rs 77 crore). The deal is part of Infinity Learn’s  push into cognitive learning.

Wizklub’s 100-person team will join the edtech platform and operate under the cognitive learning vertical “Infinity Futurz.”

Sushma Boppana, Founder and Director of Infinity Learn, said the take over of Wizklub adds significant value to what Infinity Futurz intends to provide.

According to Boppana, “It fosters the development of a child’s cognitive capacities from childhood, which are essential for both offline and online learning. This will allow us to take students’ instruction to a higher level, focusing on how to raise their IQ levels and thinking abilities, making it easier for both Sri Chaitanya and Infinity Learn. It’s a really strategic purchase for us.”

Looks like Infinity Learn is on an acquisition spree, as Wizklub is the third acquisition by Infinity Learn within first year of their operation. The deal with Wizklub comes after Infinity Learn acquired Don’t Memorise, a concept-based multilingual content platform, and Teacherr, a digital platform by teaching community.

Boppana said, “We had a crew of 60-70 people when we first began operations. We now have about 450 workers. We are focused on generating amazing information that will be tailored for the needs of the students, rather than simply throwing content at them, and something that will be beneficial for them to provide an output and see development in results.”

Infinity Futurz’ content will be available both online and offline, and the business will approach schools to give cognitive learning training to their kids, according to Bopanna.

Infinity Futurz intends to expand its existing portfolio of Infinity Learn products to the K12 market by instilling essential abilities that a student will need to thrive in their chosen field.

Ujjwal Singh, CEO and President of Infinity Learn, stated that over the next 24 months, Infinity Learn anticipates over one million early years students enrolling for a multi-year journey with Infinity Futurz.

Self-driving startup Minus Zero gets $1.7M to expand its team, R&D

0

Self-driving startup Minus Zero has secured $1.7 million in a round of funding. The company will use the funding for building an extensive autonomous vehicle research and development, infrastructure and hiring more people.

Minus Zero announced a $1.7 million funding round headed by Chiratae Ventures, with participation from JITO Angel Network and top executives from businesses such as Nvidia and Lyft. This is the first time an Indian self-driving vehicle firm has received venture capital funding.

The funds will be used mostly for expanding autonomous vehicle research and development, infrastructure, and recruiting additional employees. The team plans to make their first autonomous car use-case public in late 2022 or early 2023. Minus Zero claims to be developing an affordable self-driving system that employs high-end, high-definition cameras, significant data collecting, and sensors like as LIDAR (light detecting and ranging).

According to Minus Zero, the complexity of self-driving cars can be handled not by stacking more sensors or petabytes of data, but by making AI more intuitive, comparable to how our own brain handles decision making.

Global technological behemoths have been working hard to solve the self-driving technology spearheaded by Tesla and Google.

Given the complexity of the terrain and traffic in nations such as India, the technology is largely expected to take longer to implement.

Gagandeep Reehal, CEO & CTO of Minus Zero, stated, “With many patents in the pipeline, our innovative method to self-driving mirrors human intuition, providing the software the capacity to acquire reliable conclusions even with less data inputs. This enables robust decision making, which is critical for safe navigation in settings where extrinsic variables such as inadequate traffic infrastructure, reckless driving, severe weather, and so on would have otherwise jeopardized the vehicle’s safety.”

TCM Sundaram, founder and vice chairman of Chiratae Ventures, stated, “Autonomous vehicles (AV) are no longer a thing of the future and must become a reality now. Scaling AV acceptance beyond the current restricted usage in select locations and high-end vehicles needs a rethinking that goes beyond relying on pricey technology like Lidar and training over millions of hours of data. Furthermore, in emerging markets like as India, where driving conditions are tough and unstructured, the approach to AV must be new and especially designed. The Minus Zero team takes a novel approach to AV and designs for broad adoption in entry-level and mid-level vehicles as well as emerging markets.”

Know how this startup is helping parents pay school fees easily and on time

0

Two McKinsey & Co grads founded a company to assist parents in tracking school fees dues and making payments through a variety of pay-now and pay-later alternatives. Zenda, the company, was founded during the Covid-19 epidemic in June 2021.

While working from nexquare, a socially focused edtech startup that leveraged data science in education to build tech and data products, Raman Thiagarajan and Haseeb Ahmed noticed that during the pandemic, many of their customers faced collection and receivables challenges—that is, recovering the debt owed. To solve this issue, the McKinsey and Company colleagues founded zenda, their second business, in June 2021.

The firm, which has its headquarters in Dubai, is registered in Kochi, India, and currently has offices in Bangaluru, Kochi, and Delhi.  zenda intends to address two primary issues that parents and institutions encounter.

To begin with, tuition payments at schools (including nurseries, K-12, colleges, coaching/training centers, higher education, and so on) are largely done offline, and even in institutes that accept digital payments, the procedure is time-consuming and costly.

Second, while the majority of families receive monthly income, many schools collect fees at the beginning of the term or bi-annually, causing cash flow stress for parents and collection delays for schools. zenda enables families to keep track of their dues and make payments via a variety of pay-now and pay-later methods, as well as earn prizes for paying on time.

The primary product of the fintech firm is a parenting app.  Parents may use the app to pay their fees in whole (through numerous digital payment methods ranging from cards to UPI and bank transfers) or in installments (pay-later). The institutes receive the money up front, and the software allows parents to pay it in easy installments.

Raman says of the platform, “zenda has partnered with several loan providers, and it provides parents an embedded finance experience once they’re on the app.” Access to a loan is a three-step process, and credit is released and the money is received by the school within five minutes (in most circumstances).

With a workforce of more than 40 people, two-thirds of whom are from India, the firm has grown quickly, with offices in Bengaluru, Kochi, Delhi, and Dubai.

Raman has over 20 years of experience and formerly worked as a partner at McKinsey & Company, where he oversaw the firm’s Financial Services Practice in the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) area. He has been an active player in the startup ecosystem for over ten years and an entrepreneur for over five years.

Haseeb was a senior associate at McKinsey & Company, where he actively engaged on analytics/decision science for clients all around the world.

Raman stated that their prior company is profitable and that its solutions are actively employed in over ten countries.

The market is vast but mostly unexplored, with around $70 billion handled yearly in fee payments to private educational institutions in India, $37 billion in the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council), and $34 billion in the remainder of the Middle East and Africa.

In terms of competition, Raman says, “There are businesses providing services in certain areas like as payments, and there are numerous PGs and banks offering payment rails; however these are typically generic and not contextualised to the individual demands of parents/education institutions.”

There are lenders who provide 0 percent EMI solutions using typical loan methods. Banks and NBFCs find financing in this area to be appealing and reliable, and they often concentrate on infrastructure or institutional lending.”

“We are a financial service provider, and earn profits depending on transactions that take place through our app,” Raman explains of the startup’s business strategy. We earn money from payment and installation transactions. We collaborate with lenders, NBFCs, and BNPL providers to provide loans. They assess interest and price depending on variables such as loan history, volume, tenor, and so on.”

zenda’s users have expanded 20 times since its inception, according to Raman, with the app achieving over $100 million in yearly contractual payment volumes throughout the UAE and India by Q4 2021. Without specifying current statistics, Raman claims to have a solid pipeline of 1,000+ institutions that will go live in the next months.

WHO calls emergency meeting, India boosts vigil in the wake of Monkeypox

0

The world is witnessing a viral outbreak of another dreadful disease, called ‘Monkeypox.’ The World Health Organization(WHO) has scheduled an emergency conference to examine the outbreak, and India has increased its vigilance.

Following the coronavirus, the globe is now witnessing another viral outbreak of monkeypox. Over 100 cases have been verified in over ten countries, including the United States, Israel, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The virus has been confirmed in the community in the United Kingdom.

Taking the growing number of cases into account, the World Health Organization has scheduled an emergency conference to examine the epidemic. According to the health organization, the new outbreaks are ineffective because they are occurring in places where the virus does not routinely circulate.

India has increased border patrols as a precautionary measure. Massachusetts health officials and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention verified a single case of monkeypox in a patient who had recently returned from Canada on May 18, 2022. There have also been reports of cases in the UK and Europe.

Monkeypox is an old illness. The first known human case occurred in 1970, when the virus was identified from a smallpox-infected kid in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

Although monkeypox is unlikely to trigger another pandemic, with COVID-19 on everyone’s mind, worry of another huge epidemic is justified. Monkeypox, though uncommon and typically mild, has the potential to cause serious sickness.

Health experts are afraid that increasing travel would result in an increase in instances. Monkeypox is a viral illness that affects rodents and primates in West and Central African rainforests. It is linked to smallpox and is sometimes transferred to people.

The monkeypox virus spreads by intimate contact with lesions, bodily fluids, respiratory droplets, and infected items such as bedding. It causes swollen lymph nodes and, later, characteristic fluid-filled sores on the face, hands, and feet. Monkeypox is caused by the monkeypox virus, which is a part of the Poxviridae viral family known as Orthopoxvirus.

Smallpox, vaccinia, and cowpox viruses are included in this group. While there is no confirmed animal reservoir for monkeypox virus, African rats are thought to play a role in transmission.

Only twice in nature has the monkeypox virus been isolated from an animal. Monkeypox diagnostic testing is now only accessible at Laboratory Response Network laboratories in the United States and across the world.

The term “monkeypox” refers to the first known incidences of the sickness in animals in 1958, when two outbreaks occurred in laboratory monkeys. The virus, however, did not spread from monkeys to people, and monkeys are not major carriers of the illness.

Data security startup Seclore gets $27M to fast track its growth worldwide

0

Seclore has raised $27 million in Series C round of funding. The data security startup would use the money to fast track its growth worldwide.

Data security firm Seclore has announced it has raised $27 million in a Series C funding round led by Chicago’s Origami Capital Partners and Oquirrh Ventures of Salt Lake City. The latest investment round takes the total amount raised to $46 million. The funds would be utilized to expedite the company’s global expansion.

Ron Heinz, Founder and Managing Partner of Oquirrh Ventures, said, “As we consider the future of global cybersecurity, our investment thesis supports the rapidly growing data-centric-security industry. We looked at the team, technology stack, and total addressable market and rapidly recognized Seclore as the global market leader in data-centric security.”

Julie Klaff, Origami Partner, added, “We are very thrilled to be collaborating with Seclore CEO Vishal Gupta and the amazing team he has established. It’s an exciting moment to be a part of Seclore’s growth as they establish themselves as the world’s thought leader in the increasingly essential function of securing enterprise sensitive information.”

The quickly changing employment environment exposes data to a rising danger of breach, encouraging many organizations to follow the trend of engaging data security firms.

Seclore has built a leadership position in the data-centric security field, with large government and defense organizations as customers, as well as more than 500 multinational corporations such as American Express, Applied Materials, ADM, Saudi Telecom, and ICICI group.

To solve the inherent constraints in diverse data protection point solutions, the firm’s procedures enable organizations to integrate best-of-breed data-centric security solutions with existing business systems.

According to Seclore CEO Vishal Gupta, confidential data is everywhere and in transit, so organizations cannot afford to ‘follow’ this data through its lifecycle.

He added, “Seclore’s data-centric strategy is intended to redirect enterprises’ attention away from infrastructure and onto what really matters — data. This investment strengthens our ability to secure the contemporary workplace while also providing organizations with a reliable partner for data security, governance, and compliance.”
