À propos de Synkers
Synkers est une entreprise de technologie éducative fondée au Liban, qui s’est donné pour mission de résoudre un problème simple et universel : les élèves ont besoin d’aide au moment précis où ils bloquent, pas plusieurs jours plus tard. Grâce à sa plateforme et à son application mobile, Synkers met les apprenants en relation à la demande avec des tuteurs et mentors qualifiés, rendant le soutien scolaire individuel aussi facile à obtenir qu’une course en VTC ou une livraison de repas. D’abord startup libanaise, elle est devenue un acteur régional et a étendu sa présence à plusieurs marchés du Moyen-Orient et au-delà.
The company’s momentum was reflected in its fundraising. Synkers raised a $1.8M pre-Series A round to scale its technology and grow its tutor network. That trajectory eventually led to its acquisition by a London-based education firm, a move designed to fuel global expansion and place Synkers’ on-demand tutoring model in front of a much larger international audience while keeping its Lebanese-founded roots at the center of its story.
Pourquoi Synkers compte
Synkers is one of the clearest examples of Lebanese talent building technology that travels. Founded in Lebanon and raised on the country’s deep respect for education, it turned a local idea into a product with regional traction and, ultimately, international appeal through acquisition. For students, it made expert help accessible and affordable; for the Lebanese startup ecosystem, it became a reference point for what an ambitious edtech company can achieve when it exports its model rather than staying home. It is a reminder that “Made in Lebanon” applies to software and ideas as much as to goods on a shelf.
