SAN DIEGO, April 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QuantaSing Group Limited (NASDAQ: QSG) (“QuantaSing” or the “Company”), a leading online learning service provider for adults in China, highlighted the growth prospects of the country’s EdTech sector at the premier global forum on technology and its innovation in education and skills.

In a panel on the opening day of the ASU+GSV Summit, moderated by GSV Ventures Senior Advisor Joy Chen, Tim Xie, Chief Financial Officer at QuantaSing, said adults in China continue to look to digital learning to develop the skills to navigate today’s constantly evolving world.

“Access to quality online learning is an important step in helping people future-proof their skills and seek new opportunities for career growth and personal development. Adults are not only learning to grow, they are also learning to explore new personal interests and aspirations,” Mr. Xie said.

The panel, which included other top names from China’s online learning space, also discussed artificial intelligence (AI) applications in the country’s and global EdTech industry. Ensuring these tools facilitate the transfer of knowledge, under the guidance of tutors and specialists, and optimizing a customized learning experience is key to moving this industry forward.

QSG remains dedicated to developing new course offerings to meet the diverse needs of learners, spanning from skill-based learning courses to other personal interest courses such as short video production and calligraphy.
