"There's no sector more impactful than education," says Ronnie Screwvala, UTV Media Group head and co-founder of the recent ed-tech start-up UpGrad. The serial entrepreneur along with his co-founder and e-learning expert, Mayank Kumar, bring to light all the glory and gore of India's education system. From the need to innovate within the ed-tech space to the lack of sufficient role models for entrepreneurs today, the duo break-down India's start-up story. They also delve into the reason behind their tie-up with the government's Start-up India initiative, why ed-tech acquisitions can be tricky and the untapped power of the internet.
