Sachin signs investment pact with Unacademy

Bengaluru: India's former start cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has signed a strategic partnership with Unacademy, a learning platform with the vision of spreading deeper holistic learning. Sachin will also be the brand ambassador for the platform.

The cricketer will be coached and mentored through a series of live interactive classes which will be available to Unacademy learners at free of cost. The learning platform is working on developing a deeper content-led partnership with Sachin which will be revealed in the next few months.

"I have always believed in the power of sports as a medium that not only unifies people but also gives invaluable lessons which can help individuals in any walk of life. It has always been my endeavor to share my learnings of the game with young girls and boys and inspire them to be the best version of themselves," said Tendulkar.

Unacademy has always bridged geographical boundaries by making learning accessible from any part of India. When my vision matched with Unacademy's mission to democratise education, we decided to come together to create a unique learning experience, he added.

"Our focus at Unacademy has always been to democratise education and create holistic learning solutions that go beyond traditional forms of education. Sachin's life and journey is a beacon to the values of resilience and determination in the face of insurmountable odds. With this partnership, we are creating an unmatched learning experience by having Sachin share his life lessons with our learners and coach them," said Gaurav Munjal, Co-Founder and CEO, Unacademy Group.
