Emversity bridges the gap between higher education and employment. We partner with universities and employers to ensure every student graduates with a degree and a job.





Emversity was founded in 2023 by Vivek Sinha, former Group COO of Unacademy. While building test-preparation courses for entry-level government jobs, Vivek noticed something troubling: applicants included engineers, MBAs, and even PhDs — all competing for clerical positions. Millions of Indians had spent years earning degrees, yet remained unemployable.
The problem was structural. India produces 10 million graduates annually, but employers in healthcare, hospitality, and construction can't find workers with the right skills. On one side: 2 million unfilled roles. On the other: 33% graduate unemployment. The education system creates degrees. It doesn't create careers.
Emversity was built to fix this. Rather than building a new university, we partner with existing NAAC-accredited institutions and embed industry-aligned training, employer partnerships, and placement support directly into their degree programmes. The university provides the campus and academic rigour. Emversity adds the industry relevance and career outcomes.
In less than two years, Emversity has scaled to 60+ locations across 24 states, training 4,500+ students in healthcare and hospitality. Our employer partners — Fortis, Manipal Hospitals, Narayana Health, IHCL/Taj, Lemon Tree, OYO — co-design curricula and absorb graduates directly into their workforce.
In January 2026, Emversity raised $30M in a Series A led by Premji Invest, with participation from Lightspeed and Z47 — taking total funding to $46M at a $120M valuation. The mission hasn't changed: every student graduates with a degree and a job.
