Natterhub is an educational social media platform which prepares primary school children to thrive online.
A gated, "sandbox" environment which includes more than 300 interactive lessons, it develops media literacy and is used in more than 4000 schools.
How did Caroline Allams and co-founder Manjit Sareen take Natterhub from idea to Minimum Viable Product in April 2020? And how did they scale up rapidly: Natterhub is now enjoyed by teachers and pupils in more than 60 countries around the world?
Caroline explains. This interview covers the power of understanding your strengths and weaknesses and working with a complementary co-founder, building a culture where you and your team can ask questions, and why it's crucial to really prioritise what matters to your audience in your Minimum Viable Product.
There's lots, too, on why media literacy matters and how Natterhub develops this, plus some shocking-but-not-shocking research results from polling of over 15,000 pupils across 2,500 schools, exploring their online habits and how they feel about the internet and social media.
