Ahmedabad (Gujarat): CognoSpace, an education solutions provider focused on experiential and technology-enabled learning, has expanded its footprint to over 150 schools across more than 9 states in India, impacting upwards of 100,000 students on a weekly basis. They also boast an excellent program renewal rate of over 98%
The company specialises in designing and implementing Composite Skill Labs that aim to bridge the gap between theoretical classroom instruction and real-world application. With increasing emphasis on skill-based education under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, CognoSpace’s offerings are positioned to support schools in transitioning towards more practical and outcome-driven learning environments.
Founded by Santosh Ballu and Satish Garla, alumni of BITS Pilani with over 15 years of corporate experience, the company has scaled its operations within three years of inception to become a national-level education solutions provider. CognoSpace follows a research and development-driven approach, designing and manufacturing its own learning tools and lab infrastructure.
The company’s product ecosystem includes a portfolio of over 600 structured activities across 30 modules covering STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and life skills (Financial Literacy & Personality Development). These modules incorporate emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics, Augmented reality (AR), Drones, and 3D modelling, enabling students to gain early exposure to future-focused domains.
CognoSpace’s Composite Skill Labs are designed as plug-and-play solutions that combine physical infrastructure, curriculum, and teacher training into a single integrated system. This allows schools to deploy the labs with relatively low operational complexity while ensuring alignment with evolving education standards.
In addition to physical labs, the company offers a digital ecosystem through its Learning Management System (LMS), which supports structured curriculum delivery, performance tracking, and engagement monitoring. This integrated approach enables schools to systematically implement skill-based learning while maintaining academic continuity.
According to the company, its solutions are aligned not only with NEP 2020 but also with the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE) 2023. The platform is also designed to support schools in meeting upcoming requirements related to Composite Skill Labs, as outlined by education boards.
Schools have also reported smoother adoption of skill-based frameworks through structured implementation models.
CognoSpace’s multidisciplinary approach extends beyond STEM to include life skills such as financial literacy and personality development, aiming to create a more holistic learning experience for students.
With continued expansion plans, the company aims to further strengthen its presence across India and support schools in building innovation-driven ecosystems that prepare students for future academic and professional challenges.
