Founder story

Chatterbox

Learn a language, change a life

War, famine and climate change continue to drive growth in the number of refugees worldwide. Despite high levels of education and professional experience, many refugees face barriers to gaining employment. Chatterbox bridges that talent gap by helping marginalised professionals find opportunities in the online economy.

How it started

Chatterbox was founded in 2016 by Mursal Hedayat MBE, an Afghan refugee, and was later joined by co-founder and Y Combinator alumna Guillemette Dejean. Chatterbox joined our Autumn 2016 cohort, receiving investment from BGV at programme and pre-seed stage. “BGV's advice and support has been invaluable.” says Mursal, Chatterbox CEO.

How it's going

Chatterbox is now working with global companies such as Unilever, FTI Consulting, and BNP Paribas. Through the power of language learning, they help their customers improve cross-regional collaboration, inclusion and cultural intelligence. In 2021 the team raised a £1.5M pre-seed round. They’ve won numerous awards and have featured in the likes of the BBC, The Economist and The Times.
