Bebbel

Babbel provides bite-sized English lessons that are linked to one another and build up your knowledge over time. The classes are fun and geared toward students in the beginner to advanced levels. The company is headquartered in Berlin's Mitte area. Babbel employs approximately 450 full-time and freelancers. Thomas Holl, Toine Diepstraten, Lorenz Heine, and Markus Witte formed the company in August 2007. The language learning platform went online in January 2008 as a free beta version with community features. Babbel's first investors were Kizoo Technology Ventures and IBB Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH in 2008.

Then, in 2009, Babbel received a one-million-euro grant from the European Structural Fund (ERDF). Babbel 2.0, the new product version, was released in November 2009. Babbel's founders made the decision at the time. Babbel's creators chose a paid content approach over an advertising and mixed-finance model (freemium) at the time.

Babbel won the "digita 2013" prize as well as the "Innovate 4 Society" award at CeBIT in 2013. Babbel was named the most innovative startup in education by Fast Company in 2016.
