Goutham Kumar

Asia Hub Manager Team4Tech

Goutham Kumar is the Asia Regional Hub Manager at Team4Tech, a global Impact Accelerator that aims to bridge the digital equity gap in education. Based in Chennai, India, Goutham is an educator at heart and is an alumnus of the prestigious Teach For India Fellowship program, has spent two years as a class teacher in an underserved school.  

In his role as the Asia Hub Manager, Goutham works closely with Non-profits in Asia to assess the scope of leveraging technology to further the learning outcomes of learners towards SDG 4.
Forecasts indicate that by 2030, nearly 1 billion youth will not have the digital skills to participate in the global workforce. Goutham believes that technology access alone is not enough to shift this reality. Research shows that technology-assisted learning with teacher training programs has the largest positive effects on learning outcomes. Investing in both is a powerful equalizer in the pursuit of education equity.
