Investment to Accelerate Growth and Amplify Global Impact in K-12 Mathematics Education

Magma Maths, a leading K-12 instructional maths platform for teacher efficiency and classroom management, announced the successful closing of its Series A funding round, totaling an investment of $40 million. The round was led by Five Elms Capital, with participation from previous investors, team members, and industry experts. The new investment will be used to make Magma Maths even better for its students, teachers, Multi Academy Trust and Local Authority partners in the US, UK, and Sweden.

Since its launch in 2015, Magma Maths has established itself as an industry leader, supporting the majority of the educational system in its home market of Sweden, and has successfully launched in the U.S. with district partnerships in over 30 states since 2021. Magma Maths is revolutionising how maths is taught and learned by making it more accessible, personalised, and engaging. With the additional funding, the company will continue supporting research-based maths pedagogy by expanding curriculum offerings, enhancing user experience with AI capabilities, and scaling its operations.

"We are thrilled to have the support of Five Elms and our new partners in this journey," said CEO and co-founder Henrik Appert. "This funding will allow us to accelerate our mission of enabling educators to create dynamic, student-centred classrooms where all students are challenged and supported appropriately."

Five Elms Partner, Joe Onofrio, commented on the investment: "Magma Maths has demonstrated exceptional product-market fit in addressing one of education's most pressing challenges. We’re excited to partner with Henrik and the team as they work to improve mathematics achievement across the US market."

Magma Maths has consistently been recognised for its innovative approach to maths education. The platform combines good maths pedagogy and innovative technology to save teachers time and increase their capacity to customise education for each student. "In the past, students' knowledge gaps only became clear after an exam. But by then, it was too late to address them, as you were moving on to the next part in the math book. With Magma, teachers can identify which students are struggling and see what they need help with continuously," explains Henrik Appert.
