Kollwitzstraße 76, Berlin, 10435, Germany

Overview

Junto is a Berlin-based edtech startup that combines a scalable learning platform with interactive live trainings and a cross-company peer community for corporate learning. The company’s hybrid approach connects online content with live, cohort-based experiences and an instructor ecosystem. Junto reports a course completion rate of over 95% for its cohort-based offerings, compared with under 13% completion on platforms like Udemy, Coursera or LinkedIn Learning. The startup is targeting a €400 billion corporate training market that it says remains 90% offline. It plans to use recent funding to accelerate team growth, develop its proprietary software platform, and broaden its content and instructor ecosystem. Junto was founded by Marius Hepp, Johannes Schnell-Kretschmer and Feliks Eyser. Junto provides digital live-training programs aimed at company leaders and management teams. The platform positions itself beyond a traditional learning library by offering practical tools and training inspired by successful tech firms. Founders describe a vision of granting companies and talent access to applied skills rather than only passive course content. The company has attracted substantial angel interest and recently closed external financing to accelerate its product and go-to-market efforts. The round should help Junto scale its live-training offering and deepen relationships with enterprise clients. Named investors and backers are publicly noted as providing momentum for the business model.
