Grasp, a London-based online learning platform provider, recently announced that it has secured $4m in seed funding. The funding round was led by Balderton Capital, a prominent venture capital firm. With this investment, Grasp plans to enhance its platform and grow its team by hiring experts in product, data science, and engineering.
Founded by Ed Matthews and Jacob Sidorov, who were both early employees at Revolut, Grasp aims to revolutionize the speed at which people learn.
The company's innovative educational platform empowers individuals to accelerate their learning process, deepen their knowledge, and expand their skill sets. Initially, the platform will focus on modern vocational skills, including programming.
Grasp has already generated significant interest, evidenced by the existence of a waiting list for interested parties to sign up for beta testing. This demonstrates the strong demand for the platform's unique learning approach. With the new funding, Grasp aims to further develop its offering, provide an exceptional user experience, and make a positive impact on the way humans acquire knowledge.
