                  Kryptonite Investments intend to offer 1.4 billion shares representing

                  trading on June 12.

                  Funded in 2016, Alef provides artificial intelligence (AI)-powered and

                  personalised learning programmes. The platform served around 1.1

                  the end of last year.




                  Alef's IPO will follow listings of other education firms in the region in
                  recent years, including Taaleem Holdings. Amanat Holdings said earlier

                  this month it was considering options for its education platform,

                  including an IPO.
