Edtech is the next frontier for RIL

MUMBAI : Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) is building a suite of diverse learning solutions for India’s vast edtech market, which is dominated by names such as Byju’s and Vedantu.

Embibe, a startup in which RIL acquired a 73% stake in 2018, aims to become a top player in India’s test preparation segment. It is building an artificial intelligence-backed platform to help students clear entrance exams.
