From the founder
"Currently, 80% of the global workforce is deskless, but the vast majority of them aren’t given the necessary tools and training to be successful"
Jacob Waern
CEO and Founder at EduMe
Investor perspective
"EduMe realized early that the deskless workforce is critically important across multiple global industries and is growing rapidly, yet, has not been served well by existing training solutions. By creating a highly effective mobile training product tailored specifically for deskless workers, EduMe has achieved excellent traction in the on-demand industry that we at Prosus know well, with multiple exciting growth opportunities ahead. We are thrilled to partner with Jacob and team for the next phase of the company’s growth."
