Chinese online service provider QuantaSing Group Limited has on Tuesday announced its acquisition of Kelly’s Education, an online language education platform headquartered in Hong Kong.
This transaction signifies QuantaSing’s entry into the global online education market and the language learning sector, QuantaSing said in a statement.
Following the completion of this transaction, Kelly’s Education will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company.
According to the statement, the acquisition allows QuantaSing to tap into the global online learning and new language education sectors.
QuantaSing, known for its innovative online platforms like QiNiu for financial literacy, JiangZhen for lifelong learning, and QianChi for senior citizens’ interests, serves an extensive range of learning needs, empowering individuals to consistently enhance their self-value.
Kelly’s Education provides personalized online language education for children aged 3-15 primarily in Hong Kong.
On its path to entering the global market, QuantaSing has also introduced Hong Kong Online Education (HKOE), a brand initially developed by Kelly’s Education, which offers high-quality online English education for children, focusing on delivering value.
HKOE adheres firmly to the belief that top-tier education should be within reach for a broader audience of children, not just a privileged few.
By implementing a reasonable pricing strategy, HKOE is determined to make premium English education more affordable, presenting a range of course options that accommodate various needs and budgets.
“We are excited to integrate Kelly’s Education and the new brand HKOE into our ecosystem. We congratulate Ken and his team for developing such a strong offering and look forward to our partnership,” said Peng Li, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of QuantaSing.
According to him, their strong business model and seasoned team lays a solid foundation for our global market entry.
“We plan to broaden our course offerings, including Chinese language learning, and diversify our revenue streams by appealing to a wider age group,
“We remain committed to fulfilling the ongoing demand from individuals seeking to improve their quality of life and overall well-being through our diverse course offerings,” he said.
Ken Chau, newly appointed Senior Vice President of International Business at QuantaSing and founder of Kelly’s Education, also has the mandate to expand the business globally while maintaining the high standard of courses through meaningful partnerships.
“Joining forces with QuantaSing presents an exhilarating opportunity to leverage their strengths and extend our business reach globally,
“Our vision for the future encompasses not only broadening our reach but also continually adapting our offerings to meet the dynamic needs of learners worldwide,” he said.
