Alef Education Wins Coveted ‘Disruptor Award’ at Prestigious Bett Asia

Awards

Abu Dhabi, October 9, 2024: Alef Education, a UAE-based global leader in education
technology, has been awarded the prestigious ‘The Disruptor Award’ at the globally
renowned Bett Asia Awards, highlighting its commitment to reshape the traditional education
landscape and accelerate the adoption of technology to improve student learning.

The award was presented during the 8th edition of Bett Asia, the premier EdTech Leadership
Summit and Expo held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Disruptor Award is a prestigious
recognition that goes to an individual, group or organisation that continues to transform
traditional pedagogy and champions the accelerated use of technology to create future-ready

schools and students.

Alef Education was honoured for its groundbreaking work in Indonesia, where its flagship
product, the Alef Platform, has significantly improved student learning outcomes for more
than 650,000 students nationwide. The platform achieved an impressive 8.5% increase in
maths performance among students. As part of its investment in the Indonesian education
sector, Alef Education has developed a localised version of its platform in Bahasa Indonesia,
which includes customised maths, Arabic, and English courses.

With the endorsement of the presidents of both nations, Alef Education and the Indonesian

Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA) embarked on a strategic partnership following the signing
of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in 2020. This collaboration began with a pilot
program in 2021, during which Alef Education developed a localised educational program,
established a dedicated team in Indonesia, and sponsored access to the Alef Platform for
madrasah students nationwide. The successful implementation in 2021 marked a significant
milestone in Alef Education's mission to improve educational outcomes through innovative
digital learning solutions.

Will Lock, Chief Growth Officer, said: “We are honoured to receive this prestigious award as
it confirms our commitment to reshaping the global education landscape through our
technology-based solutions. It also underpins our position as a global leader in providing
personalised and effective learning solutions for students worldwide. Such accolades
reinforce our commitment to support educators and inspire learners by transforming
education with innovative solutions. We will continue to ensure that students worldwide are
equipped with the skills and knowledge they need for the future workforce.”
