Learnlife is on a clear mission: to positively change education worldwide. We hope to transform an outdated system born in the industrial era by unleashing a purpose-inspired, personal learning model into the €5trn education market.We see our two Barcelona-based Learnhubs as lighthouses for global learning communities. We’ve launched innovative on-site, online & blended learning programmes for all ages, from 1h-a-week experiences to full-time programmes, to ‘Learning Guide‘ teacher training.As a result, our 170 full-time learners aged 6-18 are experiencing a better way to learn. They are 2x as likely to recommend Learnlife over their former school. In 2021, enrolments grew 66% (91 to 151), with corresponding revenues increasing 72% to €851K, 70% contribution margin, and -€2.9M EBITDA in 2021.To date we’ve raised €5.6M in capital, been featured in Wired, Forbes, LaVanguardia, and HundrED, & now we are ready to scale.In the last 18 months, we signed 24 agreements with organisations seeking our products, services & training, & 8 MOUs with potential partners.
