This is Matt Reustle and today, we are breaking down Duolingo, it's hard to find someone who doesn't see the opportunity to build new technology businesses around education. But it's equally hard to find existing success stories in education technology, or EdTech, enter Duolingo, the learning app built on language learning that is increasingly expanding into other territories like math and music.
My guest is Thaiha Nguyen from Baillie Gifford, you should assume that most of our guests own the businesses that they are covering on Business Breakdowns. But it's important to mention here that Thaiha works for Baillie Gifford's positive change strategy. They invest for returns, but also for the impact on society. And while I personally try to avoid casting judgment on how businesses earn their profits, we have certainly covered some businesses that are deemed to be world-class at raising prices.
