We're thrilled to welcome Rainmatter by Zerodha and BITS BioCyTiH Foundation as co-investors, alongside continued support from The Chennai Angels and our other angel investors.

This investment will: - Strengthen our presence in India - Accelerate international regulatory approvals - Expand our Ai/ML offerings in Cardio-Respiratory care Our goal? To reduce premature NCD deaths by 30% by 2030. It's ambitious, but with our incredible team and supportive investors, we're up for the challenge.

Three premises that we at #Kreedo firmly believe in: 1.  Schools are the temples of learning - The place where child spends maximum time during the day apart from home. True learning has to be delivered via schools. Cut to the pandemic where we were told that traditional schools are done for, and a few potential investors even advised us to pivot to a B2C model which we refused to do. Post pandemic, children and parents turning back to schools for learning and understanding their importance has vindicated our stand. Learning is as much a social process as an intellectual process and hence, schools will always be the most important medium to impart skills and deliver learning. 2. Early Education is a necessity not a luxury – Foundational learning is the prime reason for the “learning poverty” that we see around us. This is the reason we see children struggling in primary & secondary years as the learning gap keeps widening because children are playing catch up all the time. If Viksit Bharat to become a reality in 2047, we need to fix learning in the early years for all sections of society especially in the lower income communities right now. 3.  Play is the best way to deliver learning – It is the best and easiest way to transform learning especially in the foundational years where children don’t differentiate between work and play. Work is play and play is work for young children. This form of learning reduces the workload of the teacher,  delivers much higher outcomes and makes children far more confident. In today’s content driven world, it is time to take a step back and understand the importance of play, experience and child led activities in the learning process. We would like to take this opportunity thank all our school / preschool partners who are allied in this vision of ours striving to make this change and have been renewing with us year on year. We would like to thank all our investors, mentors and advisers who have reposed their faith in us. All of you have been pillars of support and a guiding light during the ups and downs in this journey. Dhun Davar Sietse Wouters Gayatri Suri Wai Chiew CHIK Anselm T.

🥁 I've been away for a bit because...I was gearing up to unveil the venue for HSR Founders Club - #AFTERPARTY 🎉 Devanshi has always been a big believer of communities. At her cafe (North Star in HSR Layout) she has a board where she pins up notes and signs from entrepreneurs that sit out of there. These notes have both asks and gives. Just like in our community. At #HSRFC, we operate on founders giving back and helping fellow founders out and getting the help when they need it too. So when the opportunity came to celebrate our first anniversary - Oyster Bar & Kitchen was the first place that came to mind and now as we have it - that's where we will be partying on the 6th of April with all our club members. This is our community - where member founders facilitate and help each other out with little and big things. And this is a big party! Join us as we celebrate our first birthday at Oyster Bar & Kitchen. L-I-N-K is you know where 👇
