The entire Didask team is proud to announce a fundraising of 10 million euros led by AVP (Atlantic Vantage Point) and Citizen Capital, with the support of MAIF Impact, JuneX and Takara Capital, our historical investor.
In a context where continuing education is becoming strategic for businesses, these funds will make it possible toAccelerate technological development of our educational Artificial Intelligence and our learning coach, to accelerate our growth, especially internationally, while launching a revolutionary Knowledge Assistant for informal learning.
Traditional e-learning does not work! Cognitive science is the key
The story of Didask began in 2006 at ENS. Son Ly and Arnaud Riegert, still students, then make a simple observation: traditional e-Learning, without a solid pedagogical foundation, fails to transmit skills effectively.
Convinced that cognitive science could transform learning, they launched Didask in 2017 with Philip Moore. Their ambition is clear: allow each expert to transmit their knowledge without being a specialist in pedagogy.
This fundraiser is a key step in making our instructional technology accessible to everyone, helping employees learn effectively on a daily basis and expanding our international impact - Son Ly, CEO and co-founder of Didask.
The instructional AI that is REALLY redefining online learning
Where most solutions focus on gamification and ergonomics, we have chosen a radically different approach: placing educational effectiveness at the heart of the experience.
Our instructional AI, combines artificial intelligence and cognitive sciences to offer truly transformative training:
- It allows any business expert to quickly create high quality educational courses without prior digital skills
- At each stage of the creation of training courses (definition of the objectives and sub-objectives of the training, definition of optimal teaching methods, creation of content), it applies the recommendations resulting from research in cognitive sciences
- It automatically generates the most suitable formats for learners' engagement and progress (scenarios, feedback, flashcards, micro challenges, practical cases corrected by AI)
- It customizes the courses according to the needs of each learner.
A clear objective: to become the leader in digital training in Europe
Already adopted by more than 200 companies and training organizations (ENGIE, DEKRA, KEDGE Business School, MAGORA, BestDrive, MAGORA, BestDrive, Suez, DGAFP, PELLENC, Pierre et Vacances, Ordre des Experts Comptables, etc.), Didask continues its exponential growth, with a turnover that has doubled every year since 2022.
Thanks to this fundraiser, we will:
- Accelerate the technological development of our platform and our instructional AI
- Launch a Knowledge Assistant that can boost informal training
- Strengthening our international presence, starting with Europe
- Expand our team of over 80 experts
We are thrilled to partner with Didask, a company that is a pioneer in the evolution of online learning. Their platform, combining instructional AI and cognitive sciences, is revolutionizing training and skills development. This investment reflects our desire to invest in vertical applications based on AI. - François Robinet, Managing Partner of AVP.
Our vision for the future of training
The online training market is in full transformation, with companies looking to optimize their training investments to achieve concrete results.
In this context, our solution meets a crucial need: make learning more effective, accessible and directly applicable in daily professional life.
What seduced us at Didask was a strong conviction supported by a committed founding team: training is not just a transmission channel, it is above all a driver of transformation. A powerful lever for more efficiency, of course, but also for more equity and impact on learners. - Mehdi Belkahla, Investment Director at Citizen Capital.
Our Knowledge Assistant, soon to be integrated into daily work tools, will allow employees to develop skills in a fluid and sustainable way, directly in their workflow.
With this fundraiser and our unique instructional technology, Didask is now ideally positioned to become a major player in digital training in Europe.
