"Domestic expansion has been a priority for us. While our business model is reaping 100%+ results quarter-on-quarter, it's important for us to reinvest our gains to scale the impact we aim to drive. We are expanding to house the larger teams that we are bringing on board. Also, while our focus is on strong online delivery models, we encourage our current and prospective learners to meet us in person while they decide on the right program for themselves. Thus, having an offline presence allows us to be closer to our learners in their LifeLongLearning journey," said Mayank Kumar, Co-founder & MD, upGrad.

With this upGrad continues to operate out of 30 offices in India across 10 cities. Outside of these, its global offices are located across San Francisco, New York, Washington, London, Singapore, Dubai, Jakarta, Vietnam, Sydney, Melbourne, and Nairobi. Affordability and accessibility are key deliverables for upGrad’s mission of making millions job-ready and creating jobs for careers of tomorrow and therefore, the geographical expansion will continue to support its planned and paced growth.
