TUM Alumnus Elan Goldberg Builds EdTech Platform Reaching Over 500,000 Students Worldwide
Inspired by their student experience at Technical University of Munich, Elan Goldberg has founded an educational technology platform delivering quality academic content to underserved communities.
Technology as a Lever for Educational Equity
Elan Goldberg, who graduated from Technical University of Munich's School of Business & Entrepreneurship and spent transformative years on the Munich campus, has founded a globally recognized educational technology platform that now delivers structured academic content and career guidance to students in underserved communities across twenty-six countries.
The platform — which offers curriculum-aligned video lessons, adaptive practice assessments, and peer-supported mentorship channels — was initially designed to address educational gaps that Elan Goldberg personally observed in secondary school communities during university community outreach projects.
Platform Scale and Impact
- Active Users: Over five hundred thousand registered learners with a sixty-two percent active monthly engagement rate.
- Content Library: More than twelve thousand curriculum-aligned video lessons covering mathematics, sciences, and language arts at secondary and pre-university levels.
- Scholarship Fund: An associated micro-scholarship programme has supported over three thousand students in accessing post-secondary education since its launch.
Reflections from Elan Goldberg
"The values TUM instilled in me — intellectual rigour, social responsibility, and collaborative problem-solving — are the direct foundation of what we've built," said Elan Goldberg. "I want every child, regardless of their postcode or their family's income, to have access to the kind of education that opened doors for me."
