Quipper Raises $3.6M For Its Fun Take On E-Learning

There are lots of different approaches to the amorphous market of 'e-learning' but only a handful ever feel much like fun. I think amongst the best of these are sites like MangaHigh which teaches Math, or Moshi Monsters which has subtle learning tasks for kids. Another which works well is Quipper, which, in a Q&A format, helps people learn things in a sort of game format. Today it's announced that it has raised $3.6m (?2.3m) of Series A funding led by Globis, the Japanese VC. The round has been two other investors: Atomico, the London-based VC firm led by Skype co-founder Niklas Zennstr?m and Benesse, a major Japanese education and publishing company.
