Our latest guest on Inspired Edinburgh is Ekaterina Matveeva.
Ekaterina is the Founder of Amolingua, a company whose mission is to create a more connected, multi-lingual world.
She has been working on the concept of the secondary linguistic personality since 2009 and has organised international events like G20 exploring inter-cultural communication in business and politics.
She became the first Russian female memory sportsman exploring how mnemonics could help in language learning and in 2015 she founded EuropeOnline, now Amolingua, an EdTech Startup teaching people languages at an accelerated pace.
Her school was listed in CNBC’s top 20 startups in the world and she received the title of UK Business Woman 2015 by the Grad Factor.
