Our take
Educational institutions are becoming increasingly keen to use technical solutions to better their services, and BibliU is tapping into this trend. The company delivers access to e-textbooks and courseware for as low as $50 per student, per class - massively reducing the cost of access to essential educational resources.
Universities subscribe to BibliU for an annual fee, and their students can access course materials such as e-textbooks, monographs, and more. This means that educators have more freedom when planning lessons or lectures, knowing all their students will be able to get their hands on relevant resources. BibliI also shares the revenue from its institutional deals with academic publishers, with which it partners.
Funds secured by the company have been used to accelerate expansion across the UK and US, secure additional partnerships and investigate new product development. Despite the economic uncertainly that plagued EdTech in general throughout 2022, BibliU experienced massive growth that has seen over half the UK's higher education students receive access to its platform, and many US institutions replace legacy bookstores with a BibliU subscription.

Working at BibliU has been a great opportunity for my self-development, and I've made some great friends from colleagues here to boot! Coming out of academia into the workplace, I really wanted somewhere I could learn many different aspects of business and start-up operations quickly. I can say for certain I got that at BibliU!

Diversity has been spearheaded in the company values for several months now, led by several team members who are incredibly passionate about representation and diversity. We made a public statement of support towards Black Lives Matter, for example, and we are strongly encouraged to voice our dissenting opinions about how the company is run.
