In 2019, Karan Bajaj quit his job as Discovery India’s head to start WhiteHat Jr with the mission of making every kid a creator in this world. At the time, everyone thought Karan was reckless to give up a high-flying corporate career at the age of 40, but 18 months later, WhiteHat Jr was acquired by BYJU’s for $300 million.
