Bangalore, August 14, 2025: Bengaluru-based product Innovation enterprise Posspole Pvt Ltd has launched Posspole Catalyst, a peer-learning, AI-focused product innovation platform developed in collaboration with French education venture 01Edu.The platform, which its creators describe as the first of its kind in India, departs from conventional models of higher education. It eliminates teachers, textbooks and classrooms, instead relying on projects, real-world challenges and peer-to-peer problem solving.
The model aims to break away from the limitations of conventional rote-based education, offering students an immersive route into technology, design, innovation and entrepreneurship. For corporates, Catalyst offers a pool of talent trained to tackle live industry challenges with product thinking, systems design and innovation execution skills. Universities, meanwhile, can plug into a ready-to-deploy pedagogy that narrows the gap between academic theory and enterprise requirements.
What makes Catalyst distinctive is its integration with Posspole’s full-stack ecosystem — covering product development, compliance, manufacturing, global market access and funding through its Corporate Venture Capital arm. Participants will work on large-scale, multi-sector innovation tracks spanning healthcare, defence, telecom and energy, gaining direct exposure to the demands and complexity of industrial-scale problem-solving.
Kiran Rudrappa, CEO of Posspole, said: “Catalyst is not just a platform—it’s a national engine to build global product creators from India. We’re unlocking a new era of talent and product-led growth.”
Nicolas Sadirac, co-founder of 01Edu, added: “We are proud and excited to collaborate on the launch of Catalyst, the new groundbreaking coding school in Bangalore, India, our 31st campus worldwide! Our platform and pedagogy are designed to empower a new generation of digital talent—identifying the most promising individuals from large population pools and training them to become the world’s best AI-ready coders. In India’s vibrant tech ecosystem, we are confident we have found the ideal partner to achieve our mission and truly ‘Recode Our World with Talent.’”
Deror Sultan, CEO and co-founder of 01Edu, stated: “Youth is a priority for India, its most valuable human capital. By 2050, young people under 25 will continue to represent a major share of the country’s population. Through this partnership with Posspole in Bangalore first, and its future expansion at nationwide level, we aim to restore hope and unlock their creative potential so they can further accelerate India’s innovation and digital transformation.”
By combining peer learning with product innovation at scale, Posspole is positioning Catalyst as more than just an education programme — it is a platform to build a generation of creators and entrepreneurs capable of shaping India’s role in the global innovation economy. The initiative marks a significant step towards aligning the country’s talent pipeline with the emerging demands of an AI-driven, product-led future.
