John Cadell of Folens and Sean Tai will join Shaw Academy's Board, which includes James Egan (Founder and CEO) and Stephen Murphy (Chairperson). Speaking on the €7,000,000 investment, James Egan said:

"We are delighted to have successfully exited Examinership and significantly strengthened Shaw Academy with this investment. Each of the experienced investors' contributions is an endorsement of our potential and objective of providing higher education at lower cost to a global audience. The demand for higher education at lower cost has never been greater and Shaw Academy has only just begun to scratch the surface. The company now has ample capital to grow and innovate, world class investors and a highly focused management team. We are very excited about what the future holds for Shaw Academy."

John Cadell of Folens said:

"We are excited to be supporting this investment in Shaw Academy. Folens has a history of supporting Irish education technology entrepreneurs and we have known the team for some time. We continue to be impressed by what the team have delivered and the business model. Education services is a large part of any economy and has seen little automation compared to other industries. We feel confident the business is well placed to address that."
