At the time of typing this blog out, D2L boasts a whopping market cap of over $178 million (CAD)! Oh yes, you heard that right. The company has pots of gold to further its quest for dominance in the LMS market.

Just like knights in a medieval alliance, D2L, Elumina, and AWS joined forces as committed allies to create a formidable trio in the online assessment kingdom.
