With the world ready to be disrupted by generative AI, “we are ready to steer towards becoming India's first centaur (profitable $100 million company) in our platform category in the next 4-5 years,” he added.

Founded in 2015, Disprz currently serves nearly 350 organisations and 2.8 million users at world’s leading enterprises like ICICI Bank, Amazon, Indian Oil, Bajaj Allianz, Ather Energy, HDFC Life, Starbucks, AIA, PETRONAS, Sharaf DG, Neom, Rivoli, Kotak Life Insurance and others.

Disprz now plans to deepen its presence in emerging markets where it already operates, including India, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

It will expand global team, hire data scientists, and skill scientists, and software engineers to shape the future of people advancement and people intelligence, including further investments in Generative AI capabilities.

Rohan Wadhwa, Managing Director of Lumos Capital Group said that Disprz is uniquely positioned in the large corporate learning segment, having demonstrated leadership in markets in Asia and the Middle East with a multifaceted quality product that can compete globally.
