Learntech startup Hero Vired rebuilds Enterprise division, aims for over 100 associations across corporate, institutes and govt bodies

Hero Vired, a learntech startup under the Hero Group, has announced its focus on delivering tailored educational programs across three key sectors — Business to Business (B2B), Business to Institution (B2I), and Business to Government (B2G). With this the startup aims to provide customized training solutions that cater to a broad range of domains, functions, and skill sets aimed at enhancing organizational capabilities and facilitating the recruitment and development of talent.  

Hero Vired's newly launched offerings include personalized and hybrid learning experiences, conducted by leading industry experts. The programs leverage a state-of-the-art Learning Management System (LMS) offering flexible subscriptions, contemporary Learning and Development (L&D) frameworks, and project-based learning geared towards achieving tangible outcomes at the workplace. 

For educational institutes, the company has planned employability bootcamps complete with placement support, alongside residential training programs hosted at the BML Munjal University campus. Additionally, for large corporations and startups, the initiative will encompass skill enhancement and talent development workshops. In the public sector, the company aims to equip PSUs and government agencies with cutting-edge skills essential for workforce advancement. 

Akshay Munjal, Founder and CEO of Hero Vired, stated, “In today’s rapidly changing employment landscape, which demands speed and agility, we are intensifying our engagement in the B2B sector. Our focus will be on bridging skill gaps, forging deeper connections with organizations, and diversifying our revenue streams. With strategic positioning to bolster the B2B segment, we aim for over 100 partnerships and to facilitate over 100,000 man-hours of upskilling. Our goal is to be the preferred training partner for both corporations and educational institutions, fully equipping our learners with the essential skills and knowledge for the future of work in Industry 4.0.” 

The company states that the demand for specialized training and upskilling programs is becoming increasingly apparent across various sectors, particularly as large corporations emphasize engineering and technical training, while tech startups focus on advanced technological skills. 

With the recognized shortage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) talent and high attrition rates, Hero Vired says that more companies are opting to invest in training their current employees rather than hiring new ones. Consequently, the comany says that its expansion into the B2B sector reflects a growing awareness of the challenges related to skilling and adaptation within different industries. 

Hero Vired projects that this segment will contribute to 50 per cent of the company's total revenue in the coming year. 

Anand Verma, Head of Enterprise Sales at Hero Vired, said, "Our strategic expansion is a proactive response to the evolving playbooks in talent management by organizations. This initiative is crucial as we aim to build human capital in futuristic domains, diversify our offerings and revenue sources. We are committed to molding the future workforce and establishing ourselves as the go-to skilling partner in the B2B sector. Our programs are designed to deliver significant outcomes, enabling organizations to improve their existing performance and create new growth in a rapidly changing business world." 

Hero Vired's programs span across Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Future Technologies, Data Science, finance, management, marketing, gaming, extended reality, leadership, and soft skills. Beyond these core areas, the company also provides specialized training in Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH), quality assurance, and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices, catering to the emerging needs of new-age fields.

In its current engagements, Hero Vired is working with organizations such as the DRDO, SPM Pharma-Tech, FarMart, LNJ Bhilwara, P-C Designs, PayMe, Datazymes, and Hero Fincorp. Additionally, it is actively involved with leading educational institutions, including the Gandhi Institute of Technology and Management (GITAM), RNSIT, NDIIT, and AEC Institute while collaboration with the National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM) is also underway. In the past, it has partnered with companies such as Tiger Analytics, Oyo, Yubi, Lane Crawford, Moglix, DarwinBox and BPCL, and academic institutions like Aditya Engineering College and BMU.
