Congratulations to Paul Groake and Garret Hussey. The two most amicable entrepreneurs in Ireland. Besides--they've picked a killer market of 500m English languages learners (in Asia alone). This month they've won the 2009 Emerging Entrepreneur award.
Their product is the lovechild of eLearning and immersive worlds. Think flashcards meets Half-Life with a focus on self-discovery. You use RendezVu by entering a 3D environment--like a train station--and interact with objects and actors in real-world scenarios. Walk up to the station counter and get asked "Where are you heading to?"
Coaching, speech recognition, goal tracking and great content come together to help teach language in virtually real situations.
