The companies merged in March 2024 after operating adjacently for many years. Together, we believe that everyone can learn and that we all have the right to understand and be understood.
Joining forces means the combined mission of advancing the learning, understanding and communication of one billion people around the world by 2030 becomes even stronger. We will make a deeper, richer impact on people’s lives and on society.
We can only achieve our mission and continue to grow by having high performing, passionate people on our team. Both Texthelp and n2y promote a collaborative and innovative work environment where diversity is embraced and empowered.
The combined organization employs over 600 staff across locations in the UK, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, USA and Australia.
