IProf India
iProf Learning Solutions (commonly called iProf) is an Indian e-learning company headquartered in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. It is ranked India’s No.1 Android Education App as of April 2015. iProf was created in 2009 and has raised $15 million in venture capital funding.
Working with Kaplan, Indira Gandhi National Open University and Mumbai-based Sinhal Classes, iProf provides a platform of educational materials such as audio-video lectures, 3D animations and evaluative practice questions to prepare students for competitive national examinations for admissions into engineering, medical and management colleges and civil services programs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】)">url=http://www.pluggd.in/iprof-indias-first-personal-education-tablet-education-iit-jee-297/ )〕 Students are able to download the preparatory content from retail hotspots called iStudy Zones. The company's approximately thirty centers have high performance servers with high speed broadband and Wi-Fi capabilities that allow courses to be downloaded securely. The iStudyZones also host video conferences for doubt clearing sessions between renowned professors and students.
Lowe Lintas, one of India's leading communication groups, provides creative business services to the firm, contributing to its marketing and branding. In 2011, venture capital firms Norwest Venture Partners and IDG Ventures made investments worth 220 million rupees to help expand iProf centers and facilitate its entry into an education market valued to be approaching one billion dollars.
==Background==
iProf's current CEO, Sanjay Purohit, an Indian Institute of Technology Bombay post graduate and gold medalist from Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, left his position as the managing director of a New York based business transformation firm and moved back to India to create the opportunity for students to get an adequate education despite the lack of good instructors and limited classroom programs in tier two and tier three cities in the country. The iProf platform does not require students to have computer or internet access, allowing the preparatory program to popularly penetrate through a country with limited broadband services and six million students who currently don't have access to prep classes.
