By working in partnership we can deliver real benefits and job creation for both of our economies."
Anand Nagarajan, CEO of Dexler, explains the UK launch: "Apart from being a large and mature e-learning market in its own right, the UK is an ideal hub for strengthening engagement with our customers in Europe.

Dushyant Shetty, who has been with Dexler for nearly eight years, will head up the UK subsidiary. "One of my first jobs will be to start the recruitment process of an additional 50 people. London is at the centre of a lot of innovation and talent in the technology and education industries and it also hosts the decision makers of some of the largest enterprises in the world, as well as world-leading institutes of education."
