From offline to online solutions, and new app-based Learning gaining much traction, EdTech has come a long way, particularly at-home learning. Technology being utilized for research and learning evaluation has resulted in more successful pedagogy for the attainment of higher learning outcomes. Moreover, the addition of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality have become a common mean in learning with the use of Artificial Intelligence and Analytics to allow customized learning.

A solution provider that we present today was founded amidst such a transition. The journey started when its Founder and Managing Director, Sarvesh Shrivastava witnessed a paradigm shift in the nation’s educational sector. He came to the conclusion that due to rote learning, a majority of students feel under-confident when they enter into the job market.

Mr. Shrivastava saw a major need for setting up a liberal educational system, which involved critical thinking and problem-solving abilities alongside a curriculum that is in line with the 21^st-century skills. His vision entailed a learning path that exposes learners towards their skill sets or talent so that they can hone those talents and not follow blindly in already walked steps. Thus, Eupheus Learning was born.

Based in Delhi, the firm aims to bridge the gap between in-class and at-home learning. The EdTech firm accomplishes this by offering pedagogically differentiated, technology-led solutions through their portfolio of curriculum solutions, reference books, and at-home digital solutions in the PreK-12 market. With the solutions at home and the classrooms, the firm makes sure that there is no disparity in what is being learned.

Consequently, at present, the firm has carved its own niche in India’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Further, it aims to reach every student in this country with its solutions to forge a learning environment that adapts and suits every child’s individual needs and pace for learning.

Mr. Shrivastava brings with him more than 30 years of experience in the education and IT sectors. Prior to founding the firm, he has held progressive leadership positions in organizations such as Telecom Australia, NIIT, Pearson, and Encyclopedia Britannica.

Leveraging such a vast experience, Mr. Shrivastava has expanded Eupheus’ reach to 3700 schools including names like Narayana Group of Educational Institutions, GD Goenka Group, and Delhi Public School Society. ‘I have always envisioned creating an organization dedicated to offering pedagogically differentiated technology-driven solutions that lead to critical thinking and achievement of higher learning outcomes in the PreK-12 space,’ asserts Mr. Shrivastava.

He also led Eupheus to raise a significant amount in a Pre-Series A Funding Sixth Sense Ventures in 2018.
