Founder and CEO Prashant Sharma explains how Anwar Sheikh’s appointment reflects the company’s growing focus on day to day delivery within K–12 schools
As schools across India increasingly take ownership of competitive readiness and outcome focused learning, execution on the ground is becoming as critical as curriculum design. Innovartan Technologies is responding to this shift by strengthening its operational leadership, signalling a sharper focus on how learning systems function day to day inside K–12 school environments.
The company has appointed Anwar Sheikh as Head of Operations, a move that aligns with its expansion across school integrated, technology supported learning programmes. In this role, Sheikh will oversee academic delivery, product execution, and operational scalability as Innovartan works closely with partner schools to embed diagnostics, personalised learning pathways, and exam readiness tools within regular school systems.
Sheikh brings over two decades of experience across EdTech and school education. Prior to joining Innovartan Technologies, he was part of the founding team at Embibe, a Jio EdTech company, where he played a central role during its high growth phase. His responsibilities spanned academic strategy, content and media development, learning outcomes, product academics, and sales operations, with a consistent focus on aligning pedagogy with execution.
During his tenure, Embibe built large scale learning platforms that served students and teachers across 36 education boards in India, with localisation in 11 Indian languages in addition to English. The platforms covered a range of learning formats including text, video, simulations, and immersive experiences, enabling wide reach while maintaining curriculum relevance across regions.
Commenting on the appointment, Prashant Sharma, Founder and CEO of Innovartan Technologies, said that as the company scales its model of enabling competitive readiness from within schools, operational discipline becomes essential. He noted that Sheikh’s background combines academic understanding with execution experience, which is critical for delivering consistent outcomes across diverse school environments.
Sheikh said he looks forward to building systems that balance academic rigour with practical execution. He described Innovartan’s approach as addressing a structural gap in school education by helping schools deliver competitive readiness without relying on external coaching, and emphasised the importance of robust operational and academic frameworks in achieving this goal.
Innovartan Technologies focuses on reducing students’ dependence on external tuition by enabling schools themselves to deliver high quality, outcome driven education at scale. With Sheikh taking charge of operations, the company is signalling that its next phase of growth will be defined not just by ideas or technology, but by how effectively those systems are implemented inside classrooms and school schedules.
As school partnerships deepen and adoption widens, Innovartan’s emphasis on operational depth reflects a broader shift in education delivery, where sustained impact depends on consistent execution as much as instructional design.
