The ZNotes Story
Story of Zubair Junjunia - Founder & CEO of ZNotes
“Revolutionising education through collaboration and community-driven impact”
ZNotes began as a school project, created to help students access high-quality, syllabus-specific notes for their exams. Founded by 16-year old Zubair in 2014, it quickly gained traction as a free, accessible resource for students worldwide.
The initial goal was simple: to break down barriers to education by making learning resources available to all, regardless of financial and social backgrounds.
Fast forward to today, and ZNotes has transformed into a global youth-led movement, reaching 6 million students in more than 190 countries. With 37+ million visits to the platform, it has become a trusted resource for students preparing for standardised exams across seven major international exam boards, covering 130+ unique subjects.
