It would not be an overstatement to say that Kyna.vn is one of the most useful and sought-after websites in Vietnam. Kyna employs around 100 people. The online courses also enable people to learn the courses faster than they would by just reading related books.

The Road Map

On January 30^th, 2019, Kyna secured US $50 million in a seed round of funding from the VC firm, CyberAgent Ventures. Another VC firm called SEAF Women’s Opportunity Fund (SWOF) also participated in that round of funding. The startup will use the massive funds to host up to 1000 online courses on its website! Kyna is an abbreviation of “Ky Nang”, which means skills in Vietnamese.

Each online course in Kyna.vn lasts for 1 to 5 hours and is broken down into shorter videos spanning 10 to 15 minutes. This startup has revolutionized the way Vietnamese people learn and work.
