Houston, Texas – In a pivotal move poised to significantly enhance its global impact, TrueLeap Inc, a visionary education technology company headquartered in Houston, Texas, proudly announces the appointment of Dario Calogero to its Board of Directors. Mr. Calogero, a distinguished figure in the global tech industry, is the Founder and CEO of Maya Investment Limited (UK), which led TrueLeap’s oversubscribed pre-seed funding round.
This appointment follows Mr. Calogero’s remarkable achievements with Kaleyra, a global telecommunication leader he founded in 1999, which became the first Italian company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: KLR) in 2019 and was later acquired by Tata Communications in 2023. The inclusion of Mr. Calogero on the board marks a significant milestone for TrueLeap, underscored by his proven success in scaling technology solutions worldwide.
TrueLeap stands at the forefront of closing the digital divide, committed to democratizing access to quality education through its innovative and scalable technology solutions. The company’s flagship offering, a smart and accessible Learning Management System (LMS), is designed to meet the urgent needs of K-12 school systems worldwide, especially resource-constrained communities.
Mr. Calogero stated with great excitement, “I am honoured to join Sunny and Sandip on the Board of Directors at TrueLeap Inc, leveraging my experience with Kaleyra in scaling SaaS models and mobile communications globally, especially in emerging markets. TrueLeap stands out as a purpose-driven company, aiming at a large and fast-growing market to bring quality education to hundreds of millions of students and educators in need.”
Under Mr. Calogero’s guidance, TrueLeap is poised to amplify its impact, leveraging his extensive experience in mobile and internet technologies and international business expansion. His strategic insights are expected to propel TrueLeap to new heights of innovation and market penetration, especially in high-growth emerging markets.
Dr. Sandip Bordoloi, CEO and Co-Founder of TrueLeap Inc, warmly welcomed Mr. Calogero, stating, “Having Mr. Calogero on our Board of Directors is a defining moment for TrueLeap. His unparalleled leadership in building Kaleyra from scratch to an NYSE listing and successful exit is a treasure trove of insights for us as we reshape the landscape of educational technology.”
Currently, 250 million K-12 students lack access to an LMS, particularly affecting emerging markets, where 80% of the 1.94 billion global K-12 students reside. This disparity is widening as an increasing number of schools gain access to the internet. TrueLeap is dedicated to making quality education accessible through a simple, affordable, and smart Learning Management System (LMS).
