The story of Lingu started in the non-profit organization KIA which works with integration and Norwegian language teaching. The founders Edward Milsom and Odd Bjerga worked in this organization and came into contact with skilled and resourceful people from many different countries. The idea of ​​Lingu arose in this context of migration and communication, and human talents. The website lingu.no was launched on 16 December 2008, and our first language course started on KIA's premises in January 2009, with course providers from KIA's network. Since its inception, the company has grown and become a leading player in the language market in Norway. Lingu is today an ed-tech company and course provider with course centers in several cities. The company's management consists of an innovative and curious crew with a long career in adult education and a heart for language, technology, and pedagogy. As a company, we want to offer engaging and digital solutions for our users, as well as facilitate personal development for the people we work with. By linking talent, technology, and pedagogy, we create products and services that enable communication and interaction across language barriers. Our products and services will expand the horizons for people, and create both new career opportunities and greater tolerance in a diverse world. Our vision is to help millions of learners master new languages ​​through local classrooms and online learning. Our mission is to merge technology and pedagogy, and give the teacher digital superpowers: Create language heroes who expand human horizons
