What do you bring to the table? Here is what we expect from our ideal investors?

Shared vision & amplified growth

We seek partners who share our vision for the future of learning – read about our motivation and why we do what we do.

Strategic expertise & network access

Ideal investors bring not just capital, but also valuable industry knowledge and connections, accelerating our expansion and impact.

Market expansion & partnership opportunities

Our ideal partners can unlock doors to new markets and forge strategic partnerships with leading educational institutions and other players in ed-tech, multiplying our reach and value proposition.

We have somewhat unorthodox views on startup investing. Bear with us.

We see venture funding as an accelerant, not a lifeline. It expedites the journey from point A to point B, while without it, reaching the destination may take a longer, more circuitous route.

Long-term business

At Sematime, we don’t focus on short-term glory or quick profits. We are in it for the long haul. We are focused on building a great long-term business and doing what’s right for customers. That takes time. We must do it right.

In-it for the impact

We truly believe that what stands in the way of disenfranchised people unlocking their full potential is good old quality education. Our lifelong mission is to work with educators remove any impediments to learning.

We don't do flashy

We believe in innovation that solves problems, not just chasing the latest trends or flashy new tech and buzz words. We focus on practicality, reliability, and delivering value to customers rather than pursuing superficial features or gimmicks.
