The parent company of Rysen School, a K–12 network with 15 campuses throughout Rajasthan, AITS, or Affordable Innovative Techno Services, has raised $4 million in a pre-Series A funding round. Roman Saini, Ramakant Sharma, and Sujeet Kumar, co-founder of Udaan, participated in the round, which was headed by Big Capital and Redbrook Fund.
According to a press release from AITS, the company will use the money to scale standardized school operating models, improve its technology-led learning infrastructure, and extend Rysen School’s campus network throughout developing cities.
AITS is an education infrastructure and school management company that was founded in 2023 by O.P. Godara, Kapil Arya, Dr. Kapil Jain, and Pritesh Meena with the goal of creating scalable K–12 institutions throughout Tier 2 and Tier 3 India. It integrates technology-enabled instruction, experiential learning, and structured academics into an asset-light model through Rysen School.
Over 10,000 students have been enrolled at AITS’s 15 campuses spread across nine cities since its founding. Over the next three years, the company plans to add 100 new campuses throughout emerging markets in order to reach 100,000 students.
In order to improve student outcomes at scale, it also intends to expand teacher training and performance tracking systems, as well as create a centralized learning ecosystem with smart classrooms, coding labs, blended learning tools, and academic analytics.
