Kreedo plans to use the fresh capital to boost its product offerings and expansion
“With the current round, we will take Kreedo to more geographies in India. With incoming demand from our school partners, we also plan to extend our product offerings moving upwards to Grades 3-5, and enhance Practico, our digital home learning platform,” said Mridula Shridhar, cofounder of Kreedo.
Founded in 2012 by Shridhar and VK Manikandan, Kreedo partners with affordable private schools and preschools to transform early learning delivery.
It uses a 6T learning framework that integrates play-based learning with toys, technology, theory, teacher training, timetable, and teamwork.
