Unacademy Founders Exit: A New Chapter Begins

  • Gaurav Munjal and Roman Saini exit Unacademy, marking a significant shift in India's edtech landscape.
  • Both founders have moved on to focus on new ventures, with Munjal particularly invested in Airlearn, a tech-first edtech model.
  • Unacademy's offline tuition centers, contributing to a significant portion of revenue, did not align with Munjal's tech-driven vision.
  • Sumit Jain, a board member, is now leading Unacademy, aiming for smooth operations amidst leadership changes.
  • The exit follows failed acquisition talks and a challenging transition from online to offline-first models.
