Dubai, UAE / Carmel, IN, USA – June 5, 2025 – Qubits Learning, the leading computer science and Artificial Intelligence education provider in the Middle East, today announced its acquisition of US-based Ellipsis Education for an undisclosed amount. The all-cash transaction positions Qubits to significantly expand its presence in the American K-12 education market.
Founded in 2021 by De Paul Kannamthanam and Unnikrishnan Cheruprappan, Dubai-based Qubits Learning serves over 300 schools and 300,000 students across 14 countries. The company's digital learning platform delivers a comprehensive curriculum covering computational thinking, programming, Artificial Intelligence, data science, cybersecurity, and physical computing to students from Kindergarten through 12th grade.
Ellipsis Education, established in 2018 under the leadership of CEO Dr. Whitney Dove, brings state-approved curriculum and extensive teacher resources to the partnership. The company's K-12 computer science courses are currently approved by multiple US states, including Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Mississippi, and Nevada, serving approximately 80 school districts nationwide.
"This acquisition represents a pivotal moment in our mission to deliver world-class computer science education," said De Paul Kannamthanam, founder and CEO of Qubits Learning. "By
combining Qubits' engaging, AI-powered student platform with Ellipsis Education's trusted, state-approved curriculum and proven teacher support, we're creating the most comprehensive K-12 computer science solution available in the American market."
Dr. Whitney Dove, CEO of Ellipsis Education, added, "We're excited to join forces with Qubits Learning to amplify our impact in computer science education. This partnership allows us to combine our proven curriculum and teacher support with Qubits' innovative technology platform, creating unprecedented opportunities for students and educators across the United States."
The strategic acquisition addresses a critical gap in the US education market by uniting Ellipsis Education's standards-aligned curriculum with Qubits' interactive learning platform featuring built-in development environments, automated grading, real-time analytics, and AI-powered learning features.
The combined entity will offer over 45 comprehensive courses totaling more than 500 contact hours of instruction, delivered through Qubits' award-winning Learning Management System. Both companies will maintain their brands while integrating offerings to serve different market segments.
While Qubits Learning has remained bootstrapped since its founding, Ellipsis Education has raised $12.5 million in funding over its seven-year history. The companies will continue to operate from Dubai and multiple US locations, with plans to expand into additional international markets.
"This acquisition strengthens our position as we prepare for continued expansion in the American market," said Kannamthanam.
