ZERODHA-BACKED FUND LEADS INVESTMENT IN 'CURIOSITY LEARNING' PLATFORM QSHALA

SECTIONS
Zerodha-backed fund leads investment in 'curiosity learning' platform QShala
ETtechLast Updated: Sep 09, 2020, 06:09 PM IST
Synopsis


MINDTREE COFOUNDER KALYAN BANERJEE AND FORMER DIRECTOR OF LOWE LINTAS PREETI
SAWHNEY ALSO PARTICIPATED IN THE FUNDING ROUND.


ETtech


Zerodha-backed fund Rainmatter Capital has led a Rs 2.7 crore investment in
Walnut Knowledge Solutions, a company building out-of-school learning solutions
for children, along with participation from a group of angels including Mindtree
cofounder Kalyan Banerjee and former director of Lowe Lintas Preeti Sawhney.



QShala, which the company calls a curiosity learning platform, was started in
2014 as a predominantly offline space for hosting quizzes and other events in
partnership with schools and students. In 2019, Walnut pivoted to providing its
services online to build a more scalable platform.

"We started Walnut in 2014 and for six years we were primarily an offline
platform. In 2019, we made the shift to an online platform and from then onwards
we've really been focused on building that, which gave us the ability to scale
through online live courses," said Raghav Chakravarthy, cofounder at Walnut
Knowledge Solutions.

The company said its move to providing online quizzes was accelerated during the
Covid-19 pandemic, with its family quiz participants growing from over 50
families in March to 8,500 families today. It said it has seen a sixfold growth
on its platform during the last few months as children and their parents were
restricted to being indoors.

"Even with Zerodha, we've tried to teach people on how to trade rather than
giving just stock tips. While this investment in QShala is outside whatever we
do as a business, we thought that one of the best ways to enable curiosity
building was when someone is a kid," said Nithin Kamath, founder and CEO of
Zerodha.

QShala said that it was actively looking to hire in the technology and marketing
domain to expand its edtech platform, with the education and curriculum side of
the business having been built out over the last six years. It says a sizeable
chunk of its users come from outside large metros and some even from outside the
country.

 * I have been reading ET prime probably since inception. The reason I read ,
   especially healthcare , is because the issues are discussed at length and
   cover most aspects of the issue. Also there is scholarly treatment to
   discussions and all sides represented. There is no shortcut and normally
   stories end with a question that we keep thinking about. That is what we want
   to read as serious readers and students of the industry.

   to get experts and decision makers to open up with great detail enables the
   articles on ET Prime provide insight that adds value to experts and industry
   insiders.This is not an easy task and that makes ET Prime an invaluable part
   of the daily routine.
