SecureMyScholarship, a Dubai-based edtech platform, has raised $550,000 in a bridge funding round at a $6 million valuation. The startup connects students with scholarship opportunities across universities worldwide, simplifying what has traditionally been a fragmented and opaque process.

The fresh capital will be directed toward accelerating product development and expanding operations into India, one of the world's largest markets for international education. SecureMyScholarship's platform aggregates scholarship data and matches students with relevant opportunities based on their academic profile and preferences.

The raise comes as edtech continues to attract investor interest in the MENA region, with Dubai positioning itself as a hub for education innovation. The company plans to deepen its university partnerships and build AI-powered matching tools to improve student outcomes.
