East Ventures backs immersive game-based learning platform SoLeLands

SoLeLands, an immersive game-based learning platform to support kids’ self-discovery,  has raised undisclosed funding led by East Ventures.

SMDV also participated.

The Indonesian startup will use the money for capacity building and product development in preparation for the soft launch in Q4 2023.

SoLeLands was founded in 2022 by Jonathan Prathama (CEO) and Adhi Paisoseputra (COO), inspired by the current state of parenting. The duo realised that children in today’s generations are growing up in a technology-driven society. Thus parents should equip their children with the necessary skills and values to thrive and adapt in an ever-changing landscape.

According to them, SoLeLands ensures the right exposure and simulation to groom digital-native children. The platform focuses on two main objectives: discover kids’ passions and prepare them for future challenges.

In achieving those objectives, the edu gaming startup applies the game-first approach in supporting all parents and educators in preparing their children’s required skills and values.

SoLeLands emphasises the importance of children’s development across various areas like life skills, virtues, intelligence, and competencies. Its Talent Manager Tool gives parents visibility regarding the kids’ passion and talent. These insights will empower parents to guide their children’s development while prioritising their independence and safety, building their love for learning and equipping them with lifelong curiosity.

SoLeLands takes a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMO RPG) genre to provide a unique and engaging learning experience through hyper-localised settings and impartial tools for discovering true passions. It presents learning in synthetic environments with familiar landmarks, with users having the option of assuming the roles of inventors, biologists, and archaeologists.
