1.1 Company Summary
Talk2Prof.com will be the Language Training industry's premier on-line marketplace via a professional and social networking environment similar in look and feel to sites such as LinkedIn.com
The site focuses on three subscriber types from all over the world being:
Language StudentsFreelance TeachersLanguage Schools
The website provides a networking tool for all three parties to find and in turn be found by each other in a more effective communicative way. These subscribers are then monetised by the company in several forms of digital marketing and market research providing the cash cow of the business model via the incentivised website activity of the subscriber database.
Having already created a BETA testing version of the site with basic tools & resources, the founders have now begun looking for eventual investors & partners to take the website to the next level.
Currently the business “Talk2Prof Ltd (UK)” is located in the UK with the founders residing in Italy. Part a of the funding is to relocate the business into a serviced office space near Cambridge due to being a language learning innovator with a large pool of high quality talent.
