Become super strong (like King Kong!) In foreign languages by practicing a foreign language (Speaking) with natives around the world, this is the slogan used by the company Speakingkong. It’s a small revolution that is starting in the field of languages. Imagine being able to speak without an appointment in the language of your choice with natives around the world, this is the Speakingkong project which also wants to create the largest community of languages in the world. The founder Lionel DROUIN is not at his first try, he is already the founder of the company Elephorm, Edtech sold in part to M6 Web in 2016 and 2018. It is by organizing meetups (meetings) of linguistic exchange in Lyon and inconstant the growing success of these events (more than 10,000 registered in a few months on this network) that he decides to digitize the service in 2016. In fact, many French speakers noticing their level of poor language who wish to improve it by real conversation, without following a school path. The Speakingkong service enters a beta test version at the beginning of April 2019, pre-registrations are open, the aim being to gather 10,000 registered members before launching the service. From this moment everyone can chat for free, respecting the exchange of time between their mother tongue and their learned language. The principle is innovative, we share our time, the conversations last about 10 minutes and do not require an appointment, the relationship is made by the application. Significantly, the service is entirely community-based: without advertising and without exploiting the database with external commercial services, this is a Web service that should overturn the language landscape.
