Jaro Education featuring on The Indian Edtech Story on Disney+ Hotstar

Jaro Education, India's pioneering Edtech company, once the first mover and now the most trusted in the industry, is set to be prominently featured on Disney+ Hotstar, India's largest premium streaming platform, in the documentary series 'The Indian EdTech Story,' produced by Edstead. The series, now available for streaming on Disney+ Hotstar, shines a spotlight on the significant impact and achievements of Jaro Education in revolutionizing the educational landscape and transforming the careers of millions of students and professionals across India.

The docu-series sheds light on how the education sector is gaining prominence amidst the disruptive influence of technology, which is both powerful and accessible, emphasizing the sector's pivotal role in reshaping the learning landscape and inspiring millions while impacting billions of learners.

Ms Ranjita Raman, CEO of Jaro Education, said, “Our mission has always been to democratize education and create an ecosystem for lifelong learners, providing them access not only to quality education but also facilitating connections with alumni, thereby expanding their network. Furthermore, our commitment to delivering high-quality education entails embracing the latest and most advanced technologies, such as AI and gamified learning, to enhance the effectiveness of the learning experience. 'The Indian EdTech Story' will enlighten the audience about the evolving nature of education and how individuals can optimize it for their growth and development.”

Amid the increased media attention throughout the growth and, in some cases, the decline of the Indian EdTech journey, many found themselves prominently featured in popular media. While some were negatively highlighted within the growing community, a determined few chose to work quietly, avoiding the spotlight while consistently focusing on achieving enduring impact and outcomes. The Indian EdTech Story is not merely a documentary series but a proud moment for all EdTech Entrepreneurs who believed in EdTech as an industry. This moment will further evolve EdTech as a sector, achieving many more milestones and significantly impacting the lives of various stakeholders associated with the industry, leading it on a path of glory.

Commenting on the release, Shekhar Bhattacharjee, Founder of Edstead, expressed, "The entire objective behind producing this series was to illuminate the transformation of education into an affordable and accessible realm for millions. The series captures the highs and lows of the Edtech sector and underscores its ongoing commitment to creating a positive impact."

Jaro Education’s remarkable journey, prominently featured in the documentary, bears testimony to the organization’s unwavering dedication to providing quality education and leaving a lasting impact on the educational landscape in India. Moreover, the evolution of Jaro Education over time, achieving year-on-year growth and profitability as a bootstrapped organization, is portrayed in the series. This series encapsulates the vision set by visionary entrepreneur Dr. Sanjay Salunkhe and his successful navigation through challenges, being the first-gen entrepreneur to build the empire he dreamt of. Throughout this journey, the employees stood as assets, supporting him through thick and thin. The higher EdTech firm now provides industry-relevant programs in collaboration with the globe’s finest universities and institutes, including IITs, IIMs, and Ivy League institutions. With a strong focus on delivering high-quality education, Jaro Education has consistently been at the forefront of revolutionizing online learning.

Dr. Sanjay Salunkhe, Founder of Jaro Education, expresses, “My vision is for everyone in this country to have access to quality education, as I once struggled to attain it, particularly in areas like Tier 2 or 3 cities or villages where many lack access. I believe in the philosophy of ‘consistency over speed’ and focus on ‘creating value over valuations,’ maintaining our employees as assets even during tough times. 'The Indian EdTech Story' depicts the untold journey of Jaro Education.”

The EdTech pioneer believes that the Indian Edtech Story will illuminate the future perception of education, emphasizing the importance of lifelong learning and the necessity of building an ecosystem for all enthusiastic learners and professionals seeking continuous skill updates to broaden their growth trajectory.
