You made some great points. Any product must prioritize the long-term goals of users and customers rather than getting distracted by short-term business or engagement metrics. As you correctly point out, this is especially important in the education industry, which carries additional moral responsibilities.
Beautifully articulated. I completely agree with your statement: “Education is not just another market. It comes with moral and social responsibilities, demanding trust and long term care.”
While some large edtech ventures have failed, there are some individuals who have succeeded by focusing on building trust. This is an area that deeply interests me as well. Like many others, I aspire to contribute meaningfully to this space with the altruistic goal of “creating dignified futures for the country’s youth.” However, much of this effort remains on an individual scale rather than at a broader level.
I truly hope we see more long term thinkers investing in Education, not just for immediate ROI but driven by genuine passion and the desire to make a lasting impact.
Very well put, Menon! Unfortunate riddance credits to poor education system in India that is a major factor for unemployment. I wish the big picture was clear enough.
