At Duolingo, our mission is to develop the best education in the world and make it universally available. This guiding principle drives our Business Development Team’s effort to innovate and expand through strategic partnerships, ensuring that high-quality learning is accessible to more people.
Today, we are thrilled to announce a significant milestone in our journey: the appointment of David Ryan as our first international hire. David will serve as our Head of Business Development & Partnerships for the European market, based out of London.
With a robust background in business development from his previous roles at Twitch and Amazon, David brings a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the European market. His expertise will be instrumental in forging mutually beneficial partnerships to enhance the user experience across Europe.
Our Business Development & Partnerships team is renowned for its world-class approach to creating innovative and impactful collaborations with category-leading brands (including Netflix, Discord, Webtoon, Crunchyroll, and more). This strategic expansion into Europe underscores our commitment to delivering the best possible learning experiences to our users worldwide, and we look forward to new opportunities and partnerships that will arise from this strategic move.
The BD team is still hiring with more regional positions opening up, next in APAC. If you think you’re up for the challenge of scaling our partnerships globally, stay on the lookout for more opportunities to come in 2025!
