Top 5 Edutech and Agriculture Innovation Companies in Karnataka

                                

With the boom of technology and affordable internet services in the last few years, almost every sector has been drastically reformed, especially the education sector. Education Technology familiarly referred to as EdTech or Edu-Tech has brought a revolutionary change in how far, how deep, and how well the education is disseminated across the country. Today for obtaining a course or just taking extra classes, students are not required to run to a guide or coach; they just need a speedy internet connection and a smartphone or computer. Conventional educational systems seem to take the back seats, as the students and teachers both, try and embrace all the comfort, convenience, and efficiency that is offered by the Edu-Tech learning platforms. The Edu-Tech sector is taking online education to the next level in India and it is growing at a rapid pace.

More than half of India’s population is depending on agriculture for their primary source of income. However, the use of technology in the agricultural industry has been limited in India. As a result, the agriculture industry in India contributes merely 17-18% to its GDP. But in the last couple of years, India has seen a rise in the number of agricultural innovative companies that are not only making technology more accessible but also helping farmers to improve their lives.

Karnataka is a leading state in terms of industrial growth in India. It is the hub of the IT industry in the country and the technology cluster of Karnataka ranks as the fourth largest in the world.
