Primebook and AAS Vidyalaya Unite to Bridge the Digital Divide in Indian Education


New Delhi, 22nd August  – Primebook, a leading laptop manufacturing brand and AAS Vidyalaya, the first-of-a-kind online school and education cafes in India, both participants from Shark Tank India, who left their mark on the show, today announced their one-year milestone of joining forces to bridge the digital divide in India. The shared vision of these pioneering organisations is fast becoming a reality with the solidification of this collaboration.

The two organisations have worked together over the last year and have impacted the lives of over 2000 students across Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan. These students, who previously had limited or no internet or smart device access due to financial or geographical constraints, are now acquiring vital digital literacy skills. They leverage the online information, attend virtual classes, and study more effectively—preparing themselves for academic success and beyond.

In this interconnected world, Primebook & AAS Vidyalaya not only combine their offered resources, i.e., cutting-edge technology and educational platforms but also bring together – visions – To empower the future generation. AAS Vidyalaya is committed to ensuring that every student in India achieves a 10th-grade education, while Primebook is dedicated to providing the right technology to empower 1.5 billion students worldwide. Together, they are equipping students with the tools and platforms needed to master essential 21st-century skills, including technology proficiency, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving.

 “Carrying a shared purpose, Primebook and AAS Vidyalaya have come together to bridge the gap between knowledge and eager hearts. While Primebook is designing and delivering high-performance, cost-effective laptops to students, learners, educational institutions, and NGOs from forgotten corners of India, we at AAS Vidyalaya empower underprivileged students in our education cafes with Primebook laptops. As partners in this mission, we pledge to amplify bytes, code hope, render equity, and sail together—a bridge of ones and zeros—across the digital divide,” said Leena Kakwani, Co-Founder of AAS Vidyalaya.

Pankaj Rawat, Chief Business Officer of Primebook India, added, “Primebook believes that access to quality education is a fundamental right, and access to technology is pivotal to accomplishing this right in the post-pandemic digital era. Hence, our partnership with AAS Vidyalaya substantially manifests our commitment to bridge the digital divide in the Indian education system and empower the next generation of learners with a brighter tomorrow. Through this partnership, we have delivered affordable, state-of-the-art laptops to 2000+ students of class 6th to 10th grade, all of whom are using a laptop for the first time, and there’s no stopping now! We stand firm on our mission, and I believe that on the way, our collaboration with AAS Vidyalaya can help us drive innovation at Primebook, subsequently improvising our product functionalities and features to equip students with the right technology to thrive in their respective careers.”
