Our take
Pluralsight is dedicated to closing the global tech skills gap, a mission that has become increasingly urgent as industries worldwide face a growing shortage of IT talent. This high demand for upskilling makes Pluralsight's online training services more relevant than ever.
Founded in 2004, Pluralsight has matured into a prominent player in the online upskilling industry. The company has been significant growth in recent years, capitalizing on the surge in demandf fbefore many competiting startupos emerged. Depsite facing competition from major players like Grow with Google and UDemny, Pluralsight has maintained its strong position.
Though Vista Equity Partners' 2021 acquisition has brought some challenges, Pluralsight, once a unicorn startup now a public company, continues to thrive. With numerous partnerships with NGOs, educational institutions, and corporations, Pluralsight remains a key player in tackling the tech skills shortage.
