Tekedia's Strategic Acquisition
Tekedia Capital has announced the acquisition of Quizac, a pioneering African edtech startup known for its innovative approach to gamified learning. This strategic move is set to integrate Quizac’s cutting-edge technology into the broader Tekedia ecosystem, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of digital education in Africa.
Quizac's Vision: Revolutionizing Learning Through Gamification
Quizac, which has been recognized as the “Most Innovative Gamification Platform in West Africa,” was founded with a mission to transform the educational experience by bringing the excitement and engagement of social media into learning. The platform was designed to empower students by offering an engaging alternative to traditional education, making learning as captivating as social media.
The founders of Quizac, Tade Samson, Alayo Hussein, and Oluwatobiloba Awogbemi, envisioned an educational platform that could compete for students’ attention in the digital age. Their vision has now found a new home within Tekedia, where it will be nurtured and expanded to reach even greater heights.
A New Learning Experience
With the acquisition of Quizac, Tekedia Institute, known for its Mini-MBA and other award-winning business management programs, is poised for a transformative evolution. Quizac's gamification technology will be seamlessly integrated into Tekedia’s core engine, offering learners an immersive and engaging educational experience.
The integration will gamify the learning process, allowing students to explore entrepreneurial concepts and market dynamics in a more interactive way. For instance, learners will be able to simulate scenarios like "10x Growth in Lagos" or "New Market Risks," making the pursuit of knowledge not only educational but also highly engaging. The convergence of AI technology, data, knowledge, and action will be harnessed to serve individuals, communities, and nations through this innovative approach.
A Visionary Collaboration
Tekedia Capital has expressed its deep appreciation for the vision and dedication of the Quizac team. The partnership with Tade Samson, Alayo Hussein, and Oluwatobiloba Awogbemi represents a shared commitment to advancing education in Africa. Tekedia’s promise is to build on the foundation laid by Quizac, extending its innovative hypothesis and furthering the mission of liberating minds through impactful education.
Expanding Tekedia’s Offerings
Tekedia Institute is not only focused on enhancing the educational experience but is also planning to expand its offerings to provide additional tools for success. A new portal is in development, which will offer business tools such as inventory management, project management, invoicing, bookkeeping, and legal custodial services. Additionally, the portal will provide global banking services and a marketplace for digital products, positioning Tekedia as a comprehensive platform for both education and business enablement.
The new portal is expected to launch in the coming weeks, with updates to be provided to all current and future Tekedia learners, ensuring that everyone benefits from these advancements.
