Abstract
Technology has made a significant contribution to education development and has had a significant impact on school education in India during the last few decades. In its consecutive national education programmes, the Indian government has placed a strong emphasis on education technology (ET). Edtech did not receive enough financing till 2019, but the Covid-19 pandemic propelled online learning and gave rise to multiple EdTech start-ups in India and around the world. These Edtech firms have been around for nearly two decades and have promised a bright future in education. Education is thought to be the single most important factor in bringing prosperity to millions of people in Asian countries. For a long period, however, the principal mode of delivery remained unchanged. Despite the fact that certain institutions have begun to use digital technologies, the education industry has been sluggish to absorb and incorporate new technology into its processes. The same was based on the assumption that, at the very least in school education, the digital mode of instruction could eliminate the work of several teachers. The purpose of this study is to outline the current state of EdTech start-ups in India as well as their future prospects. The current study also assesses the Edtech firms Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) analysis in the Covid-19 scenario.
