Homegrown edtech startup Aanaab raised USD 7 mn from Jeddah-based investor Dallah Investment Holding in a series A round, according to a press release. The statement did not disclose additional information on whether Dallah’s investment is debt or equity based.

The startup will use the funds to expand its activities, add more training programs to include new sectors, and to upgrade its technological infrastructure through AI.

About the platform: Co-founded in 2018 by CEO Mounira Jamjoom (Linkedin), COO Naila Al Khalawi (LinkedIn) and board member Fouad Al Farhan (LinkedIn), Anaab is a digital training platform that offers Arabic language courses, licensing, and qualifications to advance the professional development of K-12 teachers. Upwards of 200k teachers and 250 schools across 10 countries in MENA have so far enrolled onto the platform.

REMEMBER- Aanaab secured an undisclosed investment from US-based edtech VC Rethink Education in June to upgrade its training solutions for school teachers and professionals.
