Business Description

Our mission Udemy’s mission is to transform lives through learning. About Udemy Udemy is a global learning company, which underwent a strategic transformation in 2025. Udemy’s AI-powered skills acceleration platform empowers organizations and individuals with flexible, measurable, and outcome-driven learning experiences. Udemy’s learning marketplace enables tens of thousands of instructors to develop, distribute and enhance content that reaches Udemy’s broad global audience of nearly 84 million learners. Udemy leverages technology, including artificial intelligence (“AI”), as well as data and insights, including proprietary Role Play technology and Model Context Protocol (“MCP”) capabilities, to deliver personalized, immersive and effective learning experiences that demonstrate proven skill development and career advancement outcomes. We curate our highest-quality content from our marketplace for Udemy’s enterprise SaaS platform, Udemy Business, which enables companies around the world to offer engaging and effective learning for all employees, immersive laboratory-style learning for tech teams and cohort-based learning focused on leadership development. In today’s rapidly evolving labor environment, there are two key trends currently reshaping the future of work: the rise of the skills-based organization and the application of generative AI. By leveraging our comprehensive learning solutions and strategic customer success approach, we believe we are uniquely positioned to empower organizations with the tools to build a future-ready workforce, increase employee engagement and retention, and achieve critical business outcomes, while also helping individuals to achieve career goals. We believe that our AI-powered platform, combined with our subscription-first business model and demonstrated ability to deliver measurable outcomes, positions Udemy as a critical partner for organizations and individuals navigating the global AI-driven workforce transformation. As automation and technological innovation accelerates changes in the workforce, there is a growing need to offer more flexible training to continuously re-skill and upskill workforces to keep up with the pace of change. Skills are becoming increasingly important for the way organizations are defining work, deploying talent, managing careers, and valuing employees. As skills required for most professional roles evolve or become obsolete overtime, developing a culture of continuous learning and improvement has never been more critical. A recent study by the World Economic Forum found that approximately 80% of employers plan to reskill and upskill their existing workers over the next five years to work better alongside AI, while workers can expect that approximately 40% of their existing skill sets will be transformed or become outdated over the same period. The study also found that 60% of global professionals will need new skills by 2030, which we believe creates an unprecedented market opportunity for AI-powered platforms like Udemy that can deliver rapid, measurable skill development at scale. Therefore, organizations that embed a skills-based approach are more likely to achieve results than those that have not, including, among others: • meeting or exceeding financial targets; • anticipating and responding effectively and efficiently to change; • innovating; and • achieving high levels of customer satisfaction, increasing productivity and retaining high performers. We believe many of today's learning platforms have a number of shortcomings, including relevance, quality, breadth, scalability, and affordability of content. Udemy’s platform is designed to address these shortcomings by effectively connecting global learners with up-to-date knowledge from experts and practitioners around the world. Udemy has positioned itself at the forefront of AI-driven workforce transformation. With more than 5,500 courses focused on developing generative AI skills and AI-powered learning capabilities, we are uniquely positioned to help organizations navigate the reality that significant portions of their workforce will need new skills in the coming years.…
