What Edulia does

Edulia S.r.l. is the training and innovation division of the Istituto della Enciclopedia Italiana Treccani, operating from Rome, Italy under the brand "Edulia - Dal Sapere Treccani." The company delivers e-learning solutions through a multi-platform digital ecosystem comprising InClasse (a digital teaching platform for schools with multimedia lessons, interactive videos, quizzes, podcasts, and Treccani encyclopedia content of 1.5+ million entries), Masterclass (an online course portal with 400+ training courses for lifelong learning), and dedicated portals for schools (scuola.edulia.it), businesses (aziende.edulia.it), and individuals. The platform is built on AWS cloud infrastructure with Cognito for identity management, single sign-on across properties, social login integrations (Facebook, Google, Apple, Microsoft, Treccani Scuola), gamification elements, and automated progress tracking. Exclusive content partnerships with cultural institutions including Fondazione Leonardo (STEM), ASviS (sustainability), Istituto Nazionale Dramma Antico, Museo Nazionale del Cinema, and Treno della Memoria differentiate the content library. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 quality management certification.

Edulia serves three primary customer segments: Italian schools (teachers and students) using InClasse for digital classroom management and professional development; Italian companies seeking customized corporate training programs that bridge corporate and educational content; and individual learners accessing Masterclass for personal and professional growth. Revenue is generated through a freemium model with annual subscriptions (tiered into Didactics, Teacher Training, or combined access), institutional school/class subscriptions with custom pricing, corporate training engagements, gift cards (12-month validity), and Italian Carta del Docente payment integration. The go-to-market motion combines self-serve product-led growth for individuals through owned web domains and mobile applications, with direct enterprise sales for school and corporate accounts, supported by a webinar programming series featuring Italian academics and education experts, and a marketing partnership with ANP (school administrators association). All operations are domestic to Italy, with no disclosed geographic expansion. The legal entity is Edulia S.r.l. with registered capital of €172,907.50, no external funding rounds disclosed, and headcount of 11–50 employees.
