Mumbai – March 26, 2025 – Udemy, a leading online skills marketplace and learning platform, today announced a partnership with the five-time champions, Mumbai Indians (MI). This represents the inaugural collaboration between MI and Udemy, underscoring the organizations’ mutual commitment to continuous skills development and performance excellence.
The Udemy-MI partnership aims to bring a unique convergence of excellence and continuous learning, empowering hundreds of MI employees and more than 50 million fans with cutting-edge skill-building resources for lifelong upskilling. With over 250,000 courses in 75 languages – including Hindi, Telugu, Urdu, and Gujarati – Udemy offers a vast collection of curated learning paths covering the most in-demand professional and technical skills to optimize business outcomes and support career growth.
Genefa Murphy, Chief Marketing Officer at Udemy, said:
“Udemy is looking forward to joining forces with MI, a team defined by resilience, strong performance, and the relentless ‘MI Attitude’ of winning. Cricket in India continues to set the bar high, as seen in the nation’s recent ICC Champions Trophy victory, and staying ahead requires adaptability and upskilling. MI’s philosophy of perseverance and excellence aligns with Udemy’s mission to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to thrive. Through this collaboration, we’re empowering MI’s team and fans with access to in-demand topics like Generative AI, ensuring the team stays at the forefront of innovation and fans across India can better achieve their career goals.”
As a leader in online learning, Udemy has established a robust presence in India with a community of over 16 million learners and hundreds of enterprise customers, 2,600+ marketplace courses in multiple Indian languages, and a network of 9,500+ expert instructors nationwide. In 2024, Udemy established a new research & development center in Chennai to continue bridging the skills gap and investing in the rapidly evolving market. Through this strategic partnership, Udemy will organize a series of targeted marketing activations to strengthen brand presence and expand reach in the region, inspiring a new generation of learners to acquire in-demand skills, pursue their passions, and unlock their full potential.
A Mumbai Indians spokesperson said:
“Just like on the field, success is rooted in the ability to constantly learn, evolve, and adapt. Whether it’s fine-tuning our strategies or building new skills, MI is always looking for ways to grow and move ahead. Our partnership with Udemy empowers our teams and fans to access learning and skills development resources that drive better outcomes.”
Udemy will offer exclusive promotions and events with MI during the season. This includes Player Meet-and-Greets, Match Day experiences at live stadiums across India, a behind-the-scenes tour of the team’s training sessions, and an exclusive webinar with MI coaches discussing their approach to skill development. These unique opportunities will provide Udemy customers, learners, instructors, and employees an inside look at the MI team and the world of cricket, allowing them to experience the MI winning culture firsthand.
