With the continuously changing landscape, 79% (reported by World Economic Forum) of CEOs are worried about the current skills of their workforce and are actively seeking strategies to build teams that are ready to lead the future. StepUpwards, a virtual instructor-led training platform based out of Bengaluru has made it its mission to enable organizations to build a high-performance workforce using modern learning principles.
 
StepUpwards was founded in 2021 by Debarshi Chaudhury, a NewYork based tech veteran, Deepak Saraf, a Mumbai based serial entrepreneur & exponential thought leader and Varun Bajaj, a Bengaluru based IIM drop out.
 
The startup is working closely with reputed companies like CarDekho, Sakha Global, and leaders from organizations to give their teams the skills they need to fulfill business goals and often deliver a 10X RoI. The VILT platform is all geared up to enter the US and UK markets in the next quarter, as reported by the StepUpwards management.
