50% of the cohort under 6 years old.

This year sees a relatively young cohort with 50% being formed less than 6 years ago, some teams starting their enterprise in 2020 or 2021, during the height of the pandemic, including Kazakhstani tech bootcamp Qwant and online school for kids, Skysmart. Just over a third of the 2021 cohort are between seven and 10 years old, which is indicative of the time it generally takes for EdTech start-ups to gain traction.

В этом году относительно молодая когорта, 50% которой сформирована менее 6 лет назад, некоторые команды начинают свое предприятие в 2020 или 2021 году, в разгар пандемии, в том числе казахстанский учебный лагерь по технологиям Qwant и онлайн-школа для детей Skysmart. Чуть более трети когорты 2021 года – это возраст от семи до десяти лет, что свидетельствует о времени, которое обычно требуется стартапам EdTech, чтобы набрать обороты.

EdTech providing solutions across the lifecycle

Similar to last year, EdTech is strong in workforce and skills with teams such as internship platform Neupusti, and online upskilling solutions Skypro and Units. However, EdTech is working in all parts of education and training with strong representation in STEAM solutions such as online kids coding school Kodland and SkillFactory which offers data science and machine learning courses.

Education management is also a strong segment in the 2021 cohort as EdTech start-ups support schools, universities and companies to deliver digital learning solutions and administrative efficiencies – Smart School Pro which provides a digital platform for pre-schools and course creation platform CoreApp are examples in this categories.

Language Learning is always strong in Russia and CIS with newer teams like Basenji Apps (Belarus) and AllRight (Russia) along with more established startups such as Skyeng (Russia) and EnglishDom (Ukraine).

Управление образованием также является сильным сегментом в когорте 2021 года, поскольку стартапы EdTech поддерживают школы, университеты и компании, предлагая решения для цифрового обучения и повышая административную эффективность – Smart School Pro, которая предоставляет цифровую платформу для дошкольных учреждений, и платформа для создания курсов CoreApp являются примерами. в этой категории.

Изучение языков всегда активно в России и странах СНГ благодаря новым командам, таким как Basenji Apps (Беларусь) и AllRight (Россия), а также более устоявшимся стартапам, таким как Skyeng (Россия) и EnglishDom (Украина).

Как и в прошлом году, EdTech обладает сильными кадрами и навыками с такими командами, как платформа для стажировок Neupusti и онлайн-решения для повышения квалификации Skypro и Units. Тем не менее, EdTech работает во всех областях образования и обучения с сильным представлением в решениях STEAM, таких как онлайн-школа кодирования для детей Kodland и SkillFactory, которая предлагает курсы по науке о данных и машинному обучению.
