NEW DELHI [INDIA]: March 23: Leap, South Asia’s largest AI-powered study-abroad ecosystem, today announced a strategic expansion of its offline centre network across India with 15 new centres opening in 2026 across India already, accelerating new openings in Tier I markets as well as high-intent Tier II and Tier III cities. The rollout is funded by Leap’s Series E momentum and strong business performance, with substantial investment directed toward new centre buildouts, standardised training, and secure, paper-light processes. By end-2026, Leap aims to add 20 additional operational touchpoints, selected through data-led demand mapping and heat-mapped intent clusters where quality supply is limited. Early locations include markets such as Hubli, Indore, Bhubaneswar, Patna, and Kolkata, alongside further expansion in existing hubs, reflecting a dual approach of wider geographic reach combined with deeper, integrated service delivery within each location.
These spaces are designed to complement digital touchpoints, as they use a unified system profiling the students’ end-to-end journeys with Leap, ensuring transparency and smooth knowledge transfer between teams.
“This expansion is strategic: we’re scaling quality, not just footprint,” said Arnav Kumar, Co-founder, Leap. “In a high-stakes category, speed without governance is noise. Our model connects online convenience with offline trust through one dashboard, so every counselling note, shortlist decision, document checklist, test-prep progress update, and visa milestone is visible, auditable, and continuous. That’s how you deliver consistent outcomes at scale, city after city.”
