GSV Releases the GSV 150 List for 2023, Recognizing the Top Growth Companies in Digital Learning & Workforce Skills
GSV reveals the 2023 edition of its annual GSV 150 list
CHICAGO and NEW YORK and SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- GSV Ventures, the multi-stage venture capital firm focused on the $7+ trillion global digital learning and workforce skills sector, is proud to announce the 2023 edition of its highly-anticipated GSV 150 list. The list recognizes the top 150 private companies across Pre-K to Gray digital learning and workforce skills driving growth, innovation, and impact in the industry.
Over 4,000 venture capital and private equity-backed private companies revolutionizing the world of education technology were evaluated to determine this year's list. GSV evaluated several factors — revenue scale, revenue growth, user reach, geographic diversification, and margins profile, to arrive at the top 150 companies. GSV estimates that together these 150 companies reach roughly 3 billion people -- almost half of the global population -- and generate approximately $25 billion in revenue.
"We are excited to release the annual GSV 150, a selection of the leading private companies in digital learning and workforce skills," said Alexandra Argo, investor at GSV Ventures. "As we enter into what we call a 'Brave New World,' it is clear that you can't use an old map for a new world. This impressive group of companies continues to grow and evolve to meet the needs of learners and businesses at scale. After evaluating over 4,000 companies globally, we are proud to present the list of the 150 most impactful companies in digital learning that are leading the charge in providing ALL people equal access to the future."
The final selection of companies was determined by GSV's proprietary scoring system, which applies scores across several KPIs such as revenue scale, revenue growth, user reach, geographic diversification, and margins profile. Companies evaluated met the following criteria:
- VC or PE-backed companies in digital learning and workforce skills, excluding public and nonprofit companies
- Companies that have achieved meaningful scale, and primarily, but not exclusively, those that are post-Series A in their development
- Companies experiencing solid, top-line growth
