Explaining the significance of the initiative further, she said: "If I want to be a CEO, I can learn directly at SpeakIn GROW from a five-time CEO, what it takes to reach that position and stay there. If I want to be an entrepreneur, SpeakIn GROW gives me 1-on-1 access to a serial entrepreneur who has sold a US$100 mn company, not once, but twice over. We at SpeakIn GROW are ready to fuel Asian aspirations and turbocharge careers."

Experts available for personalized learning on the 1-to-1 platform include the likes of world-renowned author and business leader, Paul Dupuis; Richard Rekhy, former CEO of KPMG India; Aditya Ghosh, Founder Akasa Airlines; Alan Greenberg, who launched the Apple iTunes education initiative and renowned Ad-film Director Piyush Pandey. In total there are over 18,000 experts on the SpeakIn platform who will be curated and hand-picked to move to SpeakIn GROW.

"At SpeakIn, our vision is to make top-quality executive coaching and training available to everyone who wants it, to help employees advance their careers and help organisations to attract, retain and develop talent," added Deepshikha. "Many of our multi-national clients operate across geographies and SpeakIn GROW enables us and them to deliver personalized training at scale on an easy-to-access platform."

A KPMG report on Digital Coaching Market & Competition Assessment highlights that there has been a rise in demand for business coaching as the number of certified coaches globally (~33%) and revenue (~21%) has increased between 2015 and 2019. Post-pandemic, the need for executive mentorship has also become more prevalent. Disruption by tech and AI has resulted in better scalability and lower costs for consumers. Many managers cited a return on investment of 6x of the coaching cost.

"SpeakIn was set up four years ago in response to a US$330 billion opportunity in B2B Edtech and professional development and has grown to be Asia's largest digital professional development platform," added Deepshikha. "SpeakIn GROW is the next natural evolution of the SpeakIn suite that enables us to partner with companies to provide bespoke professional development training to even wider audiences through a flexible platform."
