Udemy, one of the most highly valued education technology companies, is taking advantage of the unusually bright spotlight on online learning to raise more money.
At a moment when the coronavirus outbreak is prompting more people to experiment with virtual learning, San Francisco–based Udemy is seeking new funding at a valuation of $3 billion, according to a person familiar with the matter. The online learning marketplace announced a $50 million round at a valuation of $2 billion in February. Udemy has hired Goldman Sachs to assist with the fundraising process.
