Singapore, 26 Feb 2024 – Geniebook, Singapore’s leading education technology (EdTech) platform for English, Mathematics, and Science (EMS) syllabi, has been named to the highly anticipated 2024 edition of the GSV 150: GSV’s annual list of the top 150 private companies transforming digital learning and workforce skills. As the only representative EdTech organisation from Singapore and Southeast Asia catering towards primary and secondary school students on the list, Geniebook is recognised for its innovations in providing personalised learning experiences in the region through the power of artificial intelligence (AI).
GSV selected the 2024 cohort from over 2,000 global companies using their proprietary rubric of revenue scale, revenue growth, user reach, geographic diversification, and margin profile. These VC- and PE-backed companies are experiencing top-line growth, collectively reaching a staggering 3B people and generating approximately $23B in revenue.
Geniebook, founded in 2017 in Singapore, is committed to nurturing children to become self-directed learners through personalised tools and innovations, empowering them to become confident contributors of tomorrow’s world.
“We are thrilled to be part of this year’s GSV 150, representing Singapore alongside peers from around the world. As a home-grown EdTech company, we deeply appreciate the conducive environment that Singapore provides for the growth of AI companies, enabling us to profoundly transform students’ learning experiences through AI,” shared Neo Zhizhong, CEO and co-founder of Geniebook.
“The world is adapting to seismic shifts from generative AI,” says Luben Pampoulov, Partner at GSV Ventures. “AI co-pilots, AI tutors, AI content generators—AI is ubiquitous, and differentiation is increasingly critical. The GSV 150 is an impressive group of EdTech companies that are leveraging AI and driving positive outcomes for learners and society.”
Workforce Learning companies comprise 34% of the list, K-12 companies like Geniebook accounts for 29%, Higher Education 24%, Adult Consumer Learning 10%, and Early Childhood 3%. Additionally, 21% of the companies stretch across two or more “Pre-K to Gray” categories.
