Very inspiring story. It shows the power of Internet, bringing people together all over the world and giving them a chance to learn and improve wherever they are. In the past only a few percent of the world population had access to good learning tools and teachers.
I honestly believe the world will be a lot more interesting place in 20 years. A new generation or two with access to good quality learning tools on any topic.

Wow - great story. This is yet another great American success story - and still congress can't get our immigration policy figured out. Congrats to Eren and the udemy team...if only congress could get their act together...
I have worked with Eren professionally before Udemy was founded at another startup. I was happy to work with him when I did and wish him great success on changing the face of education.
To me, the visa story shows just how resilient Eren has been in the face of failing external factors -- in this case, the immigration system. Udemy has a lot going for it.
Hey Udemy, please forward this to every member of Congress. Perhaps with a poster that says, "It's the immigrants, stupid."
Good luck trying to get Congress to do anything actionable, especially when it comes to education. Any sort of education reform is going to come directly through the internet.
Wow, a CEO with a Math Olympiad medal and $12 million bucks. Udemy is going places.
We always hear this crap from politicians about how we have to help the "job creators" in the US. Well, Udemy's founders are a shining example of job creators that could use congress's help. Maybe they'll get the memo and finally do something about allowing the world's brightest to start and grow companies here in the US...
