With these initiatives, Acadzone aims to make education more interactive by bringing students together.

Speaking at the launch, Mr. Hemant Kohli, CEO & Co-Founder, Bookadda.com, said, “The online shopping culture has gained ground in India and this is true even for books. Although that has led to the mushrooming of many online book retailers, there was still a big gap when it came to the availability of academic books. Acadzone.com is the first step towards bridging that gap and the website will offer the most comprehensive collection of books related to different curriculums.”
