The Mumbai launch event brought together over 350 teachers and school leaders from 250 schools across Maharashtra and neighbouring states, underscoring the programme’s momentum and the strong demand for professional development among educators.

“Mumbai represents the spirit of innovation in Indian education. With Galaxy empowered, we are equipping educators with the tools they need to engage students, inspire curiosity, and drive meaningful change in classrooms across the country. Our vision is to empower 20,000 teachers by 2025—and Mumbai is a crucial milestone in that journey,” said Raju Pullan, Senior Vice President, MX Business, Samsung India.
“India is moving forward faster than ever before, and initiatives like Samsung Galaxy empowered reflect our shared commitment to shaping a skilled, future-ready nation. If every individual gives their best, no one can stop India from becoming a Vishva Guru. What Samsung is doing today sets the direction for the way of life we aspire to build.
