Zeeshan Zakaria & Shahir Chowdhury two friends had a view to Revolutionizing the education sector of Bangladesh. For this reason, both of the friends co-founded the company Shikho Technologies Bangladesh Limited. Zeeshan Zakaria the co-founder and COO of the company got degrees and training for teaching from the UK, and also has experience of teaching in secondary level of 8 years. The COO of the company indulged his life in the world of mathematics and visited all the genres of the subject while teaching. Shikho has grown through a process of creativity in terms of course creation with a view to break the normal approach of teaching. Founded in April, 2019 Shikho is building a digital learning ecosystem centered on modernizing the delivery of the Bangladeshi National Curriculum and making it fit for the 21st century. Though this is a Bangladeshi company, this is a Singapore based organization which is backed by venture capital firms like Learn Capital, Wavemaker Partners, Teachable and Anchorless Bangladesh; which are the firms that invest mostly in EdTech companies.
