Announcement
A New Chapter in Taptic's Leadership
Effective 1 July 2026
After almost five years of building Taptic, we are proud to announce a planned leadership transition - one designed to ensure our operations remain constant and that the organisation is always set to grow.
Incoming
Kirav Doolabh
Chief Executive Officer
Kirav takes over as CEO and will lead the company into its next chapter, building on a strong foundation and a clear mission.
Founder
Veer Gosai
Transitioning to Non-Executive Director
Veer will remain involved with Taptic, moving into the role of a Non-Executive Director in the coming months to continue advising and supporting the organisation.
A Planned, Deliberate Transition
This is not a sudden change. The transition has been in effect since March 2026 and has run through June 2026 - a considered handover carried out over several months to ensure that operations remain constant and that the millions of students who depend on our platforms never feel a disruption.
Throughout this period, our focus has been on stability and growth. Taptic is well-positioned for its next chapter, with strong leadership in place and a clear commitment to the mission that has guided us from the beginning: education should not be complicated.
How the Transition Unfolded
March 2026
Transition begins
A carefully planned handover started, with leadership responsibilities gradually shifting to ensure operations remained constant and uninterrupted for the millions of students who rely on our platforms.
March – June 2026
A steady, deliberate handover
Over four months, systems, relationships, and day-to-day operations were transferred with care. Nothing was rushed - the priority throughout was continuity and stability across all seven countries we operate in.
1 July 2026
New leadership takes effect
Kirav Doolabh officially steps into the role of Chief Executive Officer, leading Taptic into its next chapter. Founder Veer Gosai transitions toward a Non-Executive Director role in the coming months.
A Note of Thanks
What started as a small educational website in South Africa has grown into a multinational operation across seven African nations, serving people over 10 million times. Founding and leading Taptic has been one of the greatest privileges of a lifetime.
Thank you to everyone who supported, used, built, and believed in Taptic. The best is yet to come.
