Netology is planning to launch an accelerator to help emerging EdTech projects. 10 to 15 companies will receive up to $ 10 million in total by transferring from 30% to 60% of their shares to Netology.

The accelerator will be called Startup.EdMarket. The first stage of the project will be open to Russian education startups only. Netology Group will select the two best projects and purchase small shares in them. About 10 more participating startups will assign 20% of their annual profit growth to Netology.
