UBITS Learning Solutions

UBITS is the e-learning platform for the future workforce. We are an EdTech company born in Colombia, accelerated in the United States by Y Combinator, with physical operation in 3 countries (Colombia, Mexico and Peru) and clients in 6 different countries of the region.

Why do we exist? Because we know that the lifetime of today’s skills (less than 2 years) is shrinking by each day that goes on, and people need to learn constantly in order to keep pace of today’s business requirements. Also, companies all around the world are suffering because they aren’t able to fill the positions they need due to the existing skill gap present all around the world (45% global average), so we help them by enabling their employees to learn very fast about hundreds of topics in courses from 15 to 60 minutes long.

We are a Software as a Service company whose clients are Spanish speaking companies with more than 200 employees, who buy annual and unlimited access to our platform for their employees. With each license, each employee receives full and unlimited access to more than 300 micro-learning courses taught by top experts of the business world, who instead of teaching in the theorical and traditional ways, teach by sharing their own experiences in the business world. By the other side, Human Resources VPs and managers get the capability of creating learning paths and plans in a very easy way, monitoring the learning behaviors of their employees and helping them thrive in their career paths.

Our courses are named BITS (the smallest digital storage unit) and as their name suggests, they consist in small units of knowledge that aim to solve problems employees have in their daily jobs, affecting their productivity and their capability of adding value to their organizations. Each BIT consists of short videos (3 to 5 minutes each), cases, activities and interactive presentations, and gives automatic certificates to each student after completing each course. Each student gets automatic recommendations for his learning paths, based on AI, corporate and demographic information.

UBITS has already more than 80 corporate clients all through Latin America and more than 40 thousand active students in its platform. Last year we raised our seed investing round for 2 million USD with investors from the US and Mexico, including LinkedIn executives. Our next step is to reach our Series A next year, reason why the AIM LATAM Challenge presents as a great opportunity for us.
