Karachi-based Ed-tech startup "Dot and Line" has successfully closed their seed round with an additional investment from London-based entrepreneur, Zeeshan Shah. Zeeshan Shah is an award winning entrepreneur focused on the real estate with projects in excess of $500 million under development and interests in the USA, UK, Dubai and Pakistan, said a press release issued here.

Seed round refers to a series of related investments in which 15 or less investors "seed" a new company with anywhere from $50,000 to $2 million. This money is often used to support initial market research and early product development.

The seed round was led by Pakistan's leading VC fund Sarmayacar and Silicon Valley-based private investor and technology industry veteran Hasan Rizvi, former Executive Vice President of Oracle in California. Founded in 2015 by two LSE (London School of Economics) alums; Maheen Adamjee and Lina Ahmed, Dot & Line is a tech-based network of female tutors who deliver after-school classes in mathematics and English from their own homes.

The company is continuously developing new content, striving to fill learning gaps, and implementing teaching methodologies that are student-centric and inclusive for all learners. Till date, Dot and Line has successfully helped over 900 students overcome their learning challenges with math and English.

Lina Ahmed, Co-Founder of Dot & Line says, "We strive for nothing less than excellence regarding the quality of our content and teachers. It is our belief as a company that there is no reason a child should be struggling academically if these two core components are provided and by leveraging technology we are able to make a much stronger nation-wide impact."-PR
