Education App Super Secured Tens of Millions Yuan in Series B Funding

Super, an education app caters for the needs of university students, reportedly received tens of millions yuan in Series B funding from consortium led by Sequoia Capital, and followed by ZhenFund, Ceyuan, and AngelVest (report in Chinese).

The company has raised two rounds of angel investments from AngelVest and Qihoo’s CEO Zhou Hongyi last year. It then received tens of millions yuan of Series A financing led by Sequoia Capital this June.

With this app, college students can download class schedules to their smartphones, since Super’s back-end system is connected with the administration systems of universities. Information for tens of thousands of courses is available on the platform, enabling students to listen to any course they are interested in. Besides, students also can start a conversation with stranger classmates who are having the same course by sending instant messages via the app.
