Live Math Competitions and League has created an inclusive global mental math eco-system for talented participants, Abacus and Vedic Math coaches and training centers and schools from 48 Countries and provide them an opportunity to showcase their students' mental math skills on the global stage. Their aim is to help young minds develop interest in Mental Math by Practicing their Arithmetic Skills in a Gamified Math Environment. The company has devised this competition as a way to make India's rich heritage of Vedic Maths and Mental Maths mainstream. Free Webinars are also organised for all participants where industry stalwarts teach Mental Maths Tips and Tricks.
The company was founded by Navazesh Shetty and PrakhyatBhandary. The seed for creation of the platform was first laid in Navazesh's mind when she experienced how difficult it was for talented minds to participate in global mental math events without being affiliated to a certain abacus or vedic math coaching center.
Last year, students of 18 Asian countries participated in the Mental Math Asia Cup 2021. Registrations have already started for Mental Math World Cup 2023 and the Company is soon going to announce a schedule of all its Offline International Events for 2023.
