The Story Behind Netri

Why We Exist

Why We Exist — Our Commitment to India

Access to quality Robotics, AI, and advanced STEM education is currently limited to a small, privileged section of Indian children. Many children do not get the same privilege simply because of their geographic location, social or economic circumstances. This accessibility gap is exactly what Netri is committed to bridge.

The Reality

  • Less than 10% of Indian schools have functional STEM or Robotics labs
  • Quality tech education costs ₹30,000–₹80,000/year at premium centres
  • Children outside major cities have limited access to quality AI, Robotics, and Drone education
  • Girls remain significantly underrepresented in STEM programs

The Opportunity

  • India will need 1 million+ AI and robotics professionals by 2030
  • NEP 2020 mandates hands-on STEM education in all schools
  • Affordable smartphones and internet make AI education accessible
  • Growing parent awareness of future-readiness for their children

Our story
Our Story

Children aren't just the leaders of tomorrow.

Netri means "one who leads." It is a name rooted in purpose — because from our very first day, leadership has been at the heart of everything we do.

Netri Academy was born from a simple but powerful observation: children are natural creators and tinkerers. But somewhere between school textbooks and screen time, that spark often goes untapped. We built Netri Academy to reignite it.

Founded in Bengaluru — India’s technology capital — we started with a small lab, a handful of robots, and a big belief: that every child in India deserves the tools, skills, and confidence to shape the future.
