Success Story
Having built up expertise in digital education through prior acquisitions and investments, we created Kapow and spun it off as a standalone business.
Provider of unique digital training content and classroom tools in all non-core specialist subjects to primary schools.
Business Situation
Kapow was an idea born out of another investment and spun off as a stand-alone entity with a new product developed from scratch and a new team recruited to focus on it.
The Journey
Selling subscriptions to schools, we grew Kapow from scratch to serving over 6,000 schools, with many thousands of teachers using the platform to save time and improve the quality of teaching in less familiar specialist subjects such as computing, design, art, music and languages.
After six successful years, Kapow was acquired by a UK family office, which has co-invested alongside the existing management team to continue the company’s growth journey.
