Upskilling Platform Weskill has raised an undisclosed amount in a pre-seed funding round at a valuation of Rs 40 crore from HNIs and Strategic Investors. The fresh funds will be channeled towards accelerating its expansion and enhancing cutting-edge AI-powered learning ecosystems, Weskill said in a press release. Founded in November 2023 by Prashant Prakash Dubey, Weskill aims to address the widening skill gap between traditional college education and the ever-evolving demands of the industry. The platform aspires to weed out the hassles of lack of alignment between academic curriculum and real-world job requirements by leveraging artificial intelligence to offer career counseling and personalized training modules, making upskilling more effective, accessible, and industry-relevant. To ensure high-quality experiential learning, Weskill states that it has established partnerships with top-tier universities, including EICT, IIT Guwahati, and several multinational corporations (MNCs). These collaborations enable the platform to deliver industry-relevant training to undergraduate students and early-stage professionals, equipping them with the skills required to excel in corporate environments. In addition to its upskilling programs, Weskill has developed an AI-based career counseling and mock interview platform and claims that it has already empowered over 170,000 students in enhancing their career trajectories. Over the next two years, Weskill intends to expand its impact by upskilling and guiding over 600,000 students across India with a strong focus on AI integration, innovative learning methodologies, and strategic industry collaborations. It competes with major players in the upskilling space such as Coursera, Scaler, Simplilearn, amongst others.
