upGrad
Asia's largest integrated higher-education and skilling platform.
upGrad is one of Asia's largest integrated online higher-education and skilling companies, serving working professionals, students, and enterprises across degree programs, certifications, and corporate learning. Founded in 2015, it partners with leading Indian and global universities to deliver outcome-driven programs across data, technology, management, and law. With its acquisition of a majority stake in Internshala — the world's largest internship platform — upGrad has deepened its employability stack, connecting learning directly to first jobs and career transitions at massive scale.
Our conviction in upGrad is an extension of our conviction in Internshala — when upGrad acquired a majority stake in Internshala, we inherited a front-row seat in Asia's largest integrated higher-education platform. Ronnie Screwvala has built and scaled category-defining businesses repeatedly, and his obsession with learning outcomes over vanity metrics mirrors the durability-first mindset we backed at Internshala. The acquisition stitches learning to employment in a single stack — degrees, skilling, internships, and first jobs — and we believe that end-to-end employability flywheel will define Indian edtech's next decade.
