Chinese EdTech companies received more money than the total amount invested in EdTech firms from all other countries combined, according to a study released by HolonIQ earlier this year. Navita Ventures, the education venturing arm of global education provider Navitas, released a study on global EdTech ecosystems at the EdTech Asia Summit in Hong Kong last year concluding that Beijing is the world’s preeminent hub for EdTech, because an unparalleled number of EdTech companies are headquartered in the city. As of July 2018, among the world’s 10 largest EdTech unicorns, seven were born in China, according to a list prepared by HolonIQ (see image). As of February 2019, CBInsights lists six EdTech unicorns, five of which were born in China.
