Company mission
Junto is on a mission to build the technology-enabled upskilling platform that will empower more than one million global learners by 2030.
Our take
The EdTech market is worth around $130 Billion and is still growing. Many businesses now offer learning and upskilling opportunities to employees which has created more scope for providers in the space, particularly as they look to promote talent from within and maintain staff loyalty.
Junto sets itself apart from the majority of B2B e-learning providers by hiring instructors with direct experience – often at the executive level – from major companies like Google, Amazon, Adobe, and N26 to deliver live interactive sessions. Though only founded in early 2022, Junto has been quick to build a reputation for itself, and is already used by notable companies like Everphone, Hive, Blinkist, and Sendinblue.
Investors have also taken notice of Junto’s impact in the sector, and having secured major early investment, the startup is now quickly expanding its headcount as well as its wider network of instructors from successful companies, while also working to further develop its platform.
