About Leverage Edu

“Akshay and team have put in place strong frameworks for building a large, long-term company in this first year of our partnership. The scale of the overseas education opportunity set is even more massive than we initially imagined and the pace at which the team has executed has meant that we are happy to see ourselves co-leading a second round with DSG into an early breakout from fund III.”

“We have been looking at various companies in the Overseas Student Mobility space and are happy to have partnered with LeverageEdu, a company with the right product positioning, traction & stage to work together with on the growth journey. LeverageEdu checks the boxes of our education framework of Access (opportunities for students to study abroad), Quality (complete student services and university matching), and Relevance (multi country and cultural awareness)."

“I invest in entrepreneurs: their integrity, positive and abundant energy, and ability to have an open mind and adapt. I saw this in Akshay in addition to of course the vast opportunity in the area in which he is playing and is a sizeable player. I am excited to help as we build this out to market domination.”

“DSGCP first invested in Leverage Edu and partnered with Akshay a year ago. In that short period, Akshay and his team have demonstrated very strong execution capabilities and have positioned Leverage Edu as a leading emergent higher education and career advisory brand. We are very excited about the next phase of growth as Leverage Edu expands into becoming a full stack service provider and expands operations to more Indian cities.”

“The end-to-end financing piece of LeverageEdu, which I believe is still in pilot, is a game-changer. While solving a massive problem for students & parents, the financial services is in itself a multi-billion dollar opportunity for LeverageEdu & the initial traction has been beyond our wildest expectations!”

“Believe Leverage Edu is well on its way to cementing its leadership in the digital-first student immigration segment & are excited to partner with Akshay and the Leverage Edu team!”

“We believe it is inevitable that the next stellar brand in the global cross-border education space will be a home-grown one. We have a great belief in Akshay as a founder — he has a fantastic roadmap for scaling the business and the passion to build a truly global Indian edtech brand — and are excited about working with the Leverage Edu team on this journey.”
