Bengaluru, India – 27 June, 2025 : In a move that highlights its
culture of ownership and long-term vision, Masai, India’s leading
outcome focused education platform, has announced the elevation of Keshav
Misra as Co-founder & COO, and Aman Vats, Ankit
Agrawal as Co-founders. They join the founding leadership
comprising Prateek Shukla (Co-founder & CEO), Yogesh
Bhatt (Co-founder & SVP), and Nrupul Dev (CTO) —
forming a six-member team unified by a shared mission to reshape the future of
education and employability in India.
This decision is deeply rooted in Masai’s belief that leadership should
be earned through consistent impact and ownership — not just at the inception
of a company, but throughout its journey. The three newly appointed co-founders
are not new faces — they are leaders who have grown with the company and helped
shape it from within. Keshav Misra, formerly Senior Vice
President – Operations, has been the driving force behind streamlining
Masai’s operational infrastructure and scaling its student services; Aman
Vats, as Senior Director – Curriculum and Outcomes, has led the
charge in aligning Masai’s pedagogy with real-world industry demands, ensuring
outcomes remain at the core of every learning experience; and Ankit
Agrawal, who served as Director – Growth, has played a crucial
role in expanding Masai’s learner base through data-driven marketing and growth
strategies.
“At Masai, we believe founders aren’t just those who start the company —
they’re the people who embody the mission every single day and help carry it
forward. Keshav, Aman, and Ankit have consistently demonstrated that level of
ownership, and this elevation is a natural progression of their journey with
us,” said Prateek Shukla, Co-founder & CEO, Masai.
This is not just a title change. It’s a strategic decision aligned with
Masai’s next phase of growth — a reaffirmation of the company’s belief in
building from within, rewarding long-term commitment, and scaling with leaders
who are deeply invested in the mission. Masai’s future is being shaped by a
founding team that not only brings complementary strengths but also shares a
collective vision and value system.
“This move ensures that as we scale, we remain true to our founding
culture — one where trust, alignment, and shared purpose form the core of
everything we do,” added Prateek.
