Kian Katanforoosh, CEO of Workera: $21 Million Raised to Build the Skills Intelligence Category
In today's episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Kian Katanforoosh, CEO of Workera, a skills intelligence platform that’s raised over $21 Million in funding, about why the future economy demands a more streamlined approach to skills development, and how deep learning is going to provide the framework to keep workers ahead of the curve. By providing a personalized learning system based on cutting-edge psychometric analysis to recommend the ideal skills and precisely where to develop them, including feedback and progress monitoring, Workera combines the benefits of direct face-to-face education with the massive analytic capacity of big data.
We also spoke about the current state of the AI sector and why we found ourselves in a global skills crisis, the limitation of online learning versus a more supportive learning environment, and why Kian is here to stay in San Francisco, even if other global tech hubs are emerging as serious competitors. With a commitment to democratizing AI education and an innovative software solution to make that dream a reality, Workera is set to take its place as a market leader in the emerging category of ‘workplace intelligence’.
