Congratulations Byju’s???.
This is a very proud moment for me as a #ProudBYJUite from 7 years (i.e. from class 7 (2016) to Byju’s JEE program (till now)), as well as an Indian because Byju’s as an Indian Ed-Tech company whose category itself is very new to the world, not only able to make a space in between people and become world’s most valuable Ed-Tech company and provide the best education in the world; but also making all Indian proud by sponsoring FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 (First EdTech brand to sponsor this prestigious event globally)!
