In 2018, with just ₹30,000 in hand and a vision to empower India’s youth, engineer-turned-entrepreneur Himansu Sekhar Panda laid the foundation for Skyy Skill Academy in Odisha. Today, this homegrown EdTech startup has grown into a ₹10 crore annual turnover powerhouse—proving that big dreams can come from small beginnings.
Skyy Skill Academy was born out of a pressing need: to bridge India’s widening skill gap. Focused on practical, job-ready training, the academy has since upskilled over 2 lakh students across the country, helping them secure better opportunities in today’s competitive job market.
What sets Skyy apart is its focus on affordability, accessibility, and industry-relevant courses. From digital marketing and coding to soft skills and spoken English, the academy offers a wide range of programs designed to make learners truly employable.
From a modest startup to a national force in skill development, Skyy Skill Academy is a shining example of what can happen when purpose meets perseverance.
