Classplus celebrates its founding day with ‘Giant’ Tribute to educators
Classplus, India’s category leading B2B edtech startup that helps educators and content creators launch and scale their online coaching businesses, celebrated its Founding Day in a unique fashion. To commemorate the occasion, over 500 members of the Classplus clan came together to celebrate its partner educators with a giant artwork. Standing at 30 feet tall, the artwork served as a tribute to 100k+ educators and content creators who are using Classplus’s technology to serve their student base, globally.
Classplus team members assembled thousands of logos of educators together to create a giant Classplus logo. The artwork was symbolic of Classplus’ growth owing to the support from its educators and spelt out ‘#5SaalBemisaal of Classplus’. Being broadcasted LIVE on LinkedIn simultaneously, the event witnessed huge participation, both offline and online, as the Classplus team built Classplus piece-by-piece.
Speaking on the occasion, Classplus CEO and Co-founder, Mukul Rustagi said, “Educators have always been the focal point of our journey. Since our inception, every product innovation and business strategy we’ve explored, we’ve constantly kept the success of our educators and content creators at the center. And in return, they’ve fueled our fire through their constant support and blessings. It’s very thrilling to see their logos materialize into the bigger Classplus picture, a sign that we’re on the right track and another step closer to our mission of making a positive impact in the lives of all the educators worldwide.”

Very recently, Classplus partnered with India’s former cricket captain, Sourav Ganguly, to launch a first of its kind initiative where he was seen promoting thousands of educators and content creators as their brand ambassador.
