Edmodo has raised $30 million in a Series D round led by Index Ventures; Japanese telecom company, KDDI, also invested from its KDDI Open Innovation Fund.

Founded in Chicago, Illinois, when two school district employees set out to bridge the gap between how students live their lives and how they learn in school, Edmodo was created to bring education into a 21st century environment. Today, Edmodo is based in San Mateo, California. Thanks to those who guided and supported us in the beginning, we™re now the number one K-12 social learning network in the world, dedicated to connecting all learners with the people and resources they need to reach their full potential.
