Eneza Education, a Kenyan ed-tech startup, has partnered with Knowledge Platform, a leading Pakistani company, to form the world’s first African-Asian educational technology company.

Knowledge Platform offers digital learning materials for strategic partners, whereas Eneza Education, which launched in 2012, employs inexpensive mobile technology to deliver educational classes and assessments to users via SMS, web, and Android platforms.

With its headquarters located in Singapore, the newly combined company, known as Knowledge Platform, uses SMS, online, and mobile technologies to reach over a million students throughout Asia and Africa. The team, which consists of more than 100 people, is skilled in instructional design, education support, and AI and learning technologies.

“We are thrilled to combine our experience in designing and delivering learning solutions in emerging markets. Over three billion young people live in emerging markets. For a prosperous, equitable, peaceful and green future, there is no greater imperative than to invest in the education of these young people,” said Wambura Kimunyu, CEO of Eneza Education and now the chief growth officer of Knowledge Platform.

“Our merger unleashes tremendous energy. Eneza brings deep experience in serving the rapidly growing African market through B2C solutions, and Knowledge Platform brings depth in B2B and B2B2C solutions. We have the passion, grit, track record and capacity to innovate across broad fronts at low price points. I believe we are uniquely poised to serve the massive youth bulge in East Africa, South Asia and South-East Asia.”

Eneza is “Africa’s ace at building a large, sustained, and monetised customer base at a very low cost,” according to Knowledge Platform founder Mahboob Mahmood.

“And I believe we are the emerging markets leader in gamified learning. The combination is compelling. The future of learning involves both curricular and extra-curricular learning through formal and informal processes. Using learning games and competitions and adaptive learning systems, we help young people master curricular subjects, such as math, sciences and English, and, even more critically, largely extra-curricular 21st century skills in digital, climate and financial literacy, problem solving, and data science,” Mahmood said.
