Our Journey
Born in a small village in Turkey, Udemy’s founder Eren Bali faced limited access to education — until a computer opened new possibilities. Driven by a passion for mathematics, he turned to online resources and eventually earned a silver medal at the International Math Olympiad.
Inspired by how learning online transformed his life, Eren teamed up with Oktay Caglar and Gagan Biyani. Together, they pursued a shared vision: making high-quality education accessible to anyone, anywhere.
