We are excited to contribute to the academic development of students
Stating that he is very excited to be a part of the academic development of students with Founder One’s educational technology initiative Argedu, Founder One Investment Committee Member and General Manager Ali Sahin said:
“As Founder One, we, as the Turkish Entrepreneurship Foundation and the Turkish Informatics Foundation, in cooperation with Maxis Venture Capital Portfolio Management, have broken new ground in Turkiye and started investing in early stage startups that we have established exclusively for impact investments. We will continue to support and finance impact-oriented initiatives without slowing down.”
In our educational adventure, which we started with a dream 3.5 years ago, getting an investment from an impact fund has a very important place for us!
Argedu Education Chairman and CEO Mustafa Karayel stated that the said investment tour will be the beginning of a very important growth period for the company:
“We broke new ground in Turkiye with our work in the field of Digital Education. With cinematic visual effects and 3D models, we have built a unique new generation educational platform that appeals to the visual intelligence of our students and focuses them on success. We are very happy and proud to have received investment from Founder One, a new generation impact fund established by Turkiye’s leading institutions and investors, which set out with the motto of supporting initiatives that aim to solve social and environmental problems. This investment from Founder One will empower us to become one of the world’s leading impact initiatives. We would like to thank all our stakeholders who supported us on this journey.”
