0

Egyptian ed-tech startup OBM Education has announced a six-figure funding round to enhance its footprint in Saudi Arabia.

Founded in 2020 by Omar El-Barbary and Ezz El-Din Farag, OBM helps pre-university students choose their college majors and provides them with access to career advice and training programmes. 

The startup’s Taleb Super App has been a transformative tool for high school students across the MENA region, providing curated content, precision assessments, and premium services. OBM Education has now secured a six-figure investment from Value Maker Studio (VMS) to speed its expansion across Saudi Arabia.

“Investment is more than capital – it embodies shared visions and unyielding commitment. With VMS, we’re solidifying our resolve to enrich the educational journey of every student,” said El-Barbary.

OBM’s latest funding comes after it raised a six-figure US dollar round of funding from EdVentures back in August 2022.
