Byju's introduces an innovation hub for edtech ventures
Byju's, an Indian startup, has launched a new innovation hub called Byju's Lab, with the goal of bringing together AI and machine-learning experts with educational technology academics to develop innovative edtech solutions.
With its kids educational games platform, the Bengaluru, India-based company has expanded to more than 100 million students (and 6.5 million paid memberships), and it has been on an acquisition spree as it expands beyond India's borders.
The new venture will incubate new ideas, provide cutting-edge technology, and deliver innovative solutions across Byju's ecosystem of learning goods, with the goal of propelling and shaping the future of education.
According to the organisation, technology in education is about more than simply automation; it is also about leveraging it in the best way possible to empower students to become lifelong learners. It believes that by innovating for the future, we will be able to sustain the present, and Byju's Lab was created to help in redefining the role of technology in learning and transforming great ideas into solutions.
Byju's Lab is another step in the company's efforts to keep innovating in order to revolutionise learning experiences for children all around the world. It accomplishes this through the use of cutting-edge technology such as augmented reality, artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision capabilities, gamification, and others.
According to Dev Roy, Byju's chief innovation and learning officer, "the role of online learning is not merely to recreate offline lessons in digital space, but to make it more dynamic, engaging, and individualised." We at Byju's Lab want to investigate the power of information and technology to create a more personalised, enriched, and democratised learning experience by integrating the capabilities of computing, technology, and data. As a global company, we want to tap into a talent pool to create creative tools and use new technology to improve the learning experiences of children all around the world. We will continue to grow and experiment at the interface of business and technology in order to make innovation tangible and relevant for our end customers. We are looking to expand our team and are excited to work with brilliant and curious minds to change the way children learn."
