Rise Global

What Rise Global does

Rise Global is a founder-led education and career consulting firm headquartered in Navi Mumbai, India, operating since 2022 under the legal name Rise Global Consultancy. The company delivers five core service verticals: career and education counselling for students from Class 9 onward with psychometric assessments; admissions support for UG and PG programs spanning IITs to Ivy League universities including profile building, SOPs, LORs, interviews, scholarships, and accommodation; language training and standardized test preparation for IELTS, TOEFL, Duolingo, PTE, SAT, ACT, GMAT, and GRE; specialized MBBS abroad admissions focused on Georgian medical universities with NMC/FMGE compliance guidance; and visa services. The company also runs institutional programs including career readiness workshops, faculty training, and youth engagement campaigns for schools, colleges, brands, and government bodies.

The business operates a hybrid B2C/B2B go-to-market model. Individual students and families are reached directly through the company website, social media channels including Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and word-of-mouth referrals. The company additionally maintains institutional partnerships with 15+ schools, colleges, and universities across India for embedded counselling and curriculum support programs. Pricing is quote-based with no public disclosure; some online course content is delivered via self-serve enrollment (80+ lessons for English proficiency tests, 10+ lessons for SAT/GRE/GMAT, 40+ career assessment tests). The company does not appear to rely on proprietary technology platforms, and services are predominantly human-led.

Founder and sole disclosed executive Kshama Jain, an Imperial College London alumna with international education experience across the UK, USA, and China, leads the company. Cumulative scale commentary cites 1000+ students enrolled in Career & Education Counselling, 1100+ in Language Training & Test Prep, and outcomes spanning 15+ countries. The firm operates with 1-10 employees, has raised no external funding, and is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors or parent company.
