India’s leading multinational edtech platform Physics Wallah (PW) had made its first international foray by entering the United Arab Emirates. It was possible through a strategic partnership with Knowledge Planet in 2023. Since then, operating as PW Gulf in the region, the platform has achieved 4x growth, furthering its position in the global edtech landscape.

Monika Oli, Co-founder of Knowledge Planet, said, “Over the past year, the synergy between Knowledge Planet and Physics Wallah has proven to be a game-changer in the Gulf market. Our combined expertise has driven remarkable results by creating a platform specifically tailored to the needs of GCC students, ensuring they receive an education that is on a par with their peers in India and across the world.”

PW Gulf aims to support Indian students in the Gulf as they transition to higher education in India after completing their 12th grade. The edtech platform operates the largest offline learning network across the UAE, with 12 centers dedicated to CBSE, NEET and JEE preparation.

PW Gulf’s hyperlocal model ensures that students can conveniently access quality education within walking distance, with seven centers in Dubai, three in Sharjah, and two in Abu Dhabi.

Md Saad Salmaan, Chief Business Officer of PW Gulf, said, “We want to create better learning for all students in the Gulf by leveraging our technology expertise gained from teaching over 46 million students in India.”

PW Gulf is also introducing School Integrated Programs (SIPs), allowing schools to partner with PW and offer competitive coaching to students directly within their campuses. – editor@nrifocus.com
