Moreover, at affordable prices and easily accessible across various devices, it eliminates the biggest obstacle of access faced by a majority of talent in India. There is no longer a need to spend exorbitant amounts and relocate to major cities to receive quality teaching in these creative fields.
Speaking at the launch event of the platform, World-cup winning cricketer Suresh Raina said, “I have been lucky to fulfil my dreams and play for the country at the top level. Over the years, I have learnt many things on and off the field which would give an edge to any aspiring cricketer. FrontRow has given me a platform to give back and share this knowledge so that others can realise their cricketing dreams as well.â€
Also present at the launch was singing sensation Neha Kakkar, who addedâ€Years ago, when I was working hard to break into the industry, it would have been very helpful to receive such kind of mentorship and training from somebody who knew what it takes to make it. I’m now in a position where I can make it easier for the next set of aspiring stars and singers to learn and grow, and I’m sharing everything that I’ve learnt through my experience and career to help them out!
Co-founder IshanPreet Singh, talked about the inspiration behind the concept“We realized that there is a big gap in the market for non-academic courses which allow people to tap into their passion points that exist outside traditional classrooms. Moreover, these successful figures have a lot of first-hand wisdom to share that often goes untapped. With FrontRow we want to bridge this knowledge accessibility gap between our country’s top talent and those with unexplored potential by providing high-quality, easy to comprehend courses at affordable pricing.â€
Each course on the site consists of recorded sessions which the participants can watch at any time across various devices. The courses consistof 15-25 lessons covering various aspects. A lesson typically contains the relevant theory and examples or demonstrations, along with exercises that will help the enrollers improve their skills in a particular field.
Apart from the courses, FrontRowis also building an active community of learners by conducting regular activities, competitions and facilitating peer engagement to help them practice and showcase their skills, and remain motivated to achieve their personal goals.
Recently FrontRow raised $3.2 million from Elevation (SAIF Partners), Lightspeed and DeepikaPadukone, which will enable them toadd more courses and categories, expand their community offering and go deeper into various course formats.
