Seekho In Talks To Raise $10 Mn In Series A Round Co-Led By Lightspeed, Elevation Capital

Online learning platform Seekho is reportedly looking to raise $8-10 Mn in a Series A round that would be co-led by Lightspeed and Elevation Capital.

According to an Entrackr report, this marks the second consecutive round of funding for the Bengaluru-based company in less than 18 months. The company previously raised $3 Mn from Elevation and other investors in March last year.

“The deal terms are finalised, and if all goes smoothly, the transaction will be executed soon,” the report read, citing a source. It also said that Seekho is set to be valued at $45 Mn as two investors aim to acquire 20% of the company.

Launched in 2020 by Rohit Choudhary, Keertay Agarwal, and Yash Banwani, Seekho aims to help individuals acquire new skills and knowledge. The platform provides a range of courses designed to prepare learners for careers in various fields, including parenting, the share market, Instagram, and education.

It is available on iOS and Android, and serves the B2C space in the edtech market, helping users advance their careers through practical education. The startup competes with Unacademy, Coursera, edX, BJYU’S and Udemy.
