Arpith C — Co-Founder

As a child, I loved to learn and explore various other topics for the pleasure of discovery, but I just couldn’t make myself study and do well at exams. I chose a path exploring the literary and creative fields for my Undergraduate studies. The moment I was on a path suited to my interests and aptitudes, my life changed. I met a great set of mentors who helped me gain practical experience in the industry, network and develop a diverse skillset. Recruiting new talent in a young startup brought me face to face with the immense skill gap prevailing in India. Large numbers of young people were highly qualified from the top colleges but were not employable. Something was very wrong. We have 18-25 years of formal education with little or no practical learning and real-world problem solving that builds industry relevant skills. No wonder we have a skill gap! The solution was to complement formal education with industry exposure, skill building and mentors who could address the individual needs of youths. I quit everything and dedicated my life to solving this problem. Edvolve was founded in 2019 to complement the curriculum of schools from Grade 1-12 with personalized experiences, activities and industry mentors. We have an ecosystem of curriculum mapped online and outdoor experiences to address the diverse passions and interests of children today. Having taught children everything from philosophy to physics at various destinations globally and watching them transform has given me the conviction that every child benefits from personalized learning experiences. Every child deserves to realize their full potential. Let us make it happen!
