Mangaluru, July 14: Hikmah International Academy, a Montessori School in Mangaluru celebrated the annual Van Mahotsav recently at their school premises in Vas Lane.

K. Bhasker Moily, Mayor of Mangaluru City Corporation, graced the occasion as chief guest. A K Niyaz, Managing Director, A K Group of Industries was guest of honor. 

The chairman of the Hikmah Educational Trust Mohammed Nissar, the Trustees, Chief Admin Officer, Principal, teaching and non-teaching staff and more than 50 kids from MONT-1, MONT-2 & MONT-3 participated in planting many neem saplings at the adjacent area near to the school premises.  

The event slogan was ‘Think Green and Live Green’ to motivate the kids to know how important trees and plants are for our survival and well being.

The Mayor in his inaugural address said that forests play a vital role for our nation’s development. Destruction of forests ruins the ecological balance of the globe and also weakens the efforts of pollution control. The need for plantation has become even greater these days because of the growing pollution in the environment.

Mr Mohammed Nissar said that all the disadvantages of destruction of trees and forests can be balanced only with plantation of trees which maintains bio diversity, conservation of water and climate control.

He said that as we take a lot of care in protecting the plants, it teaches us how parents and teachers have to nurture our kids in their early stages with knowledge and discipline helping them to groom as respectable citizens of our great nation.

He announced that the institution will be coming up with an Eco-Friendly Campus in 3.5 acres of land in Mangaluru fully equipped with all the facilities which are required for a Modern School. Stone laying ceremony will take place within months.

Acting Principal Asma Syed was present. Event Coordinator Lubaina concluded the program with the vote of thanks.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Education technology company Byju’s is learnt to have raised $200 million in a funding round from Tiger Global Management, which has valued the Bengaluru-based start-up at around $8 billion, making it the third-largest unicorn (start-up valued over $1 billion) in the country.

With this, the Byju Raveendran-founded company has seen over 50 per cent jump in its valuation in just around nine months. In March 2019, Byju’s was valued $5.4 billion, when it raised around $31 million from General Atlantic, and Chinese investment giant Tencent.

At the current valuation, Byju’s has now replaced home-grown cab-hailing major Ola as the third-largest unicorn, next only to Paytm and OYO, which are valued around $16 billion and $10 billion, respectively.

Byju’s confirmed the transaction through a press statement, though the company declined to share any specific details of the deal. Tiger Global could not be immediately reached for its comments.

“We are happy to partner with a strong investor like Tiger Global Management. They share our sense of purpose and this partnership will advance our long-term vision of creating an impact by changing the way students learn,” said Raveendran. “This partnership is both a validation of the impact created by us so far and a vote of confidence for our long-term vision.”

This is Tiger Global’s first investment in the edutech space in India after Vendantu, an online tutoring platform, where it, along with WestBridge Capital, led a $42-million round in August.

An early backer of India’s internet growth story, the New York-headquartered Tiger Global has been a prolific investor in the Indian start-up space. Its portfolio in the country ranges from consumer focused e-commerce companies that are vital for the growth of the sector, such as Flipkart, Delhivery, Grofers, Quikr and PolicyBazaar, to mention a few.

After tasting success with Flipkart, one of its earliest investments, where it had pumped in around $1 billion, the PE major is now doubling down its focus on the Indian start-up space, under its new investment head Scott Shleifer.

Shleifer, who set up international private equity practice for Tiger Global, is said to be as aggressive deal maker like his predecessor Lee Fixel, who left the investment firm in March. Since then, Tiger has also invested in a host of technology-focused companies in diverse sectors including Ninjacart, CRED, NoBroker and Facilio to mention a few.

“Byju’s has emerged as the leader in the Indian education-tech sector. They are pioneering technology shaping the future of learning for millions of school students in India,” Shleifer was quoted in the press statement issued by the edutech firm.
