About us

SIP Academy India was founded by Dinesh Victor, an alumni of IIT Mumbai and IIM Ahmedabad.

SIP Abacus is part of SIP Academy India (sipacademyindia.com). The programme was originally founded in Malaysia in 1999 and launched in India in August 2003.

Now SIP Abacus has grown into a large team passionate team of professionals who believe that every child is potentially smart. We believe that systematic training can make a huge impact on every child.

We have offices across all major cities across India and we are constantly learning to improve ourselves. During the Covid lockdown we transformed ourselves into a completely online training organization and now can train children effectively both online and also offline in the classroom.

Many schools support us in our endeavor to help children and annually over 800 schools across India work closely with us in helping children develop their skills.

We exist to make a difference nationally in a sustainable manner by creating and delivering world-class programmes, that significantly impact the mental potential of children.

We are passionate about doing every activity with the child in the mind, building relationships with all concerned, giving due recognition, taking responsibility, learning, and sharing continuously.
