Our Story

Xtraordinary Digital (XD)’s journey began in 2016 as a media production studio for the sports-based non-profit organisation Care2Run.

Care2Run was founded in 2015 with the aim of transforming the lives of differently-abled and under-served young people via adaptive sports programmes.

In 2020 , when the Covid-19 pandemic hit, many of Care2Run’s physical events had to be halted. XD’s growth was accelerated as a result of that situation.

Today, XD strives to close the gaps in digital education by taking a novel approach to learning.

Today, XD mission is not only to ensure that students acquire relevant and marketable skills but to provide an inclusive, accommodating, and fulfilling learning environment.

Our Team

Prem Kumar Ramadas
Co-Founder & Principal Coach

Prem leaned on the knowledge gained via 20 years of corporate experience to set up Care2Run in 2015. His wealth of experience includes stints with leading organisations such as Talent2, Microsoft and IBM. Prem’s ambition to support the learning journeys of under-served persons eventually led to the formal establishment of XD in 2020 as a beginner content creation school and studio. Prem holds an M.Sc in Management Psychology from the University of Nottingham. He is also a Fujitsu-JAIMS Foundation scholar.

Head of Photography

After embarking on an education in Information Technology, KY branched out full-time into photography. He has extensive experience in the field and was attached for over a decade with Olympus, a leading name in photography. KY leads and facilitates a number of XD programmes. He joined XD in 2020 upon seeing the potential in digital education. A passionate educator, KY seeks to ensure students get the best out of every class.
