The online education market is booming in India. Its popularity is facilitated by low cost Internet access, as well as cheap smartphones.
The Indian Government's investment fund predicts that the total online education market in India will exceed $ 5.7 billion by 2020.
A prime example of a successful education startup is a learning app developed by Byju Ravindran, a former school teacher. The app managed to attract $ 150 million in investment.
Indian education startups also have the potential to expand internationally as they are based on unique educational content that can be adapted for other countries.
