The move aims to accelerate GrowthEd\u2019s expansion and deepen its nationwide social impact by imparting foundational life skills in millions of Indian school students. In this new role, Gupta will spearhead business development, strategic expansion, and operational scaling for GrowthEd.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>GrowthEd<\/strong> <strong>is an ed-fintech platform pioneering a mission to equip K-12 school learners with foundational life skills<\/strong>. By engaging an ecosystem encompassing ~25 crore school students, the company is addressing India\u2019s critical education gap through an experiential, tech-driven life skills education platform.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sagar Gupta brings over a decade of business leadership, financial stewardship, and institutional growth expertise across disruptive education ventures. His diverse background in education and ed-tech businesses, complemented by strong thought leadership on education, uniquely positions him to bridge aggressive enterprise growth with large-scale social impact at GrowthEd.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Welcoming him to the founding team, <strong>Rishab Mathur, Co-Founder and CEO of<\/strong> <strong>GrowthEd<\/strong>, said: \u201cSagar\u2019s ability to scale meaningful education models and his deep commitment to youth empowerment make him an invaluable addition to our leadership. His presence will accelerate our outreach to thousands of schools and create strategic partnerships that advance our mission of life skills literacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ananya Gupta, Co-Founder and COO of<\/strong> <strong>GrowthEd<\/strong>, added:<em> \u201cTransforming life skills into interactive classroom culture requires deep pedagogical conviction. Sagar\u2019s background will ensure our vision reaches millions of learners in its truest sense.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting on his appointment, <strong>Sagar Gupta, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer of<\/strong> <strong>GrowthEd<\/strong>, stated: <em>\u201cThe crisis of Indian school education is its narrow focus on traditional subjects that are distant from real-world life skills. In our country, where only a quarter of adults understand basic finance or just 2% of adults know how to administer CPR during a health emergency, it is evident that life-skills education must start at the foundation. At GrowthEd, I am excited to make our mission of purpose-driven education a commercially viable one. With Rishab and Ananya alongside, I am confident we are building an enduring enterprise that will prepare India\u2019s next generation for life.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gupta\u2019s appointment as Co-Founder and CBO comes at a strategic inflection point for GrowthEd as it plans to expand its institutional footprint across private enterprises and government networks, helping their K-12 schools align with National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 directives. Sagar Gupta\u2019s induction completes a three-member founding bench alongside CEO Rishab Mathur and COO Ananya Gupta, combining specialized strengths in product development and technology, operations, and business scaling.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Learn more about GrowthEd: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.growthed.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><u>www.growthed.in<\/u><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>If you object to the content of this press release, please notify us at pr.error.rectification@gmail.com.
