The startup hopes that the Series A funding will drive its presence in 12 countries, including South Africa, Kenya, Ghana and Saudi Arabia. Bouhlel says the company has local teachers in every country — over 500 in number — and they teach students in over 12 languages. “GOMYCODE programs target mass markets, and our blended model makes us accessible and affordable, which you don’t see a lot.”The edtech platform has grown from 100 students in its first year to around 4000 active students today. Already, over 1,000 students enroll in one of its 30 courses every month, the company said. “So the idea of building a school or a learning experience with the spirit of Silicon Valley came, and we started GOMYCODE as a summer project and camp and grew that year.” GOMYCODE says it partners with various institutions to place its students. In addition to Tunisia, GOMYCODE is present in Bahrain, Morocco, Egypt, Algeria, Ivory Coast, Senegal and Nigeria.
