Leveraging myriad growth opportunities in a booming Indian education sector

Education infrastructure opportunities in India

Education infrastructure opportunities in India As the Indian education sector continues to grow, there has been an increase in private unaided schools. This is due to the population’s demand for better quality education across the board. Contrary to popular belief, the private school sector is no longer just for elite people. With India becoming richer, more urbanized, and more attuned to the workforce demands of the 21st century, including digital literacy and STEM Infra, the private school sector is destined to grow. Added to that, India is experiencing a paradigm shift in terms of students migrating from smaller towns and cities seeking higher education. While Student Housing is a relatively new concept in the country, its demand is steadily rising owing to its benefits in terms of comfort, connectivity, and innovation. To cater to the needs of diverse demographics, Cappella continues to seek opportunities and build best-in-class Edu Infra assets across major cities in India.
K-12 provides foundational education for children from kindergarten to the 12th grade. In a developing country like India, there is an ever-growing demand for quality infrastructure that provides a nurturing place for students to learn and explore new ideas.

Today’s students are tomorrow’s workforce, so it’s no surprise that businesses and educational institutions focus on creating opportunities to help students thrive in their future careers. After all, student housing isn’t just about housing for young adults pursuing higher education. It’s about fostering an ecosystem conducive to success.
