We’re proud to share our latest investment in FroggyTalk — an inclusion-tech startup that helps African migrants across Europe stay connected with their loved ones, and with the communities they now call home.
Founded in The Hague in 2023, FroggyTalk offers a mobile-first platform that combines ultra-low-cost international calling with local integration support, legal aid, and mental health resources, all available in users’ native languages.
For the 11 million Africans living in Europe, staying in touch with family is essential — but often costly and complicated. FroggyTalk bridges that gap, creating an accessible, digital lifeline that connects continents, families, and opportunities.
Why This Matters
We believe that inclusion begins with connection. Communication is not just about talking — it’s about belonging.
Many migrants face high calling costs, language barriers, and limited access to essential services. FroggyTalk tackles all three — combining affordable connectivity with practical tools that make everyday life easier and more inclusive.
With this investment, we back a mission-driven team from the African diaspora who know these challenges from experience. Their lived reality fuels a vision of technology that not only connects people but helps them belong and thrive.
Our Impact Thesis
FroggyTalk aligns with several of SI3’s core impact priorities:
- Reducing inequalities by giving marginalized communities digital access to essential services
- Improving mental health and well-being through connection and support
- Promoting social inclusion by making integration in new societies smoother and more humane
By expanding affordable communication and integration tools across Europe, FroggyTalk helps migrants stay close to their roots while building new lives with confidence and dignity.
Next Steps for FroggyTalk
With our investment of €300,000, FroggyTalk will:
- Strengthen its technical infrastructure and data capabilities
- Expand its platform to include new services such as subscription-based legal and mental health support
- Grow its team to serve more users across multiple European countries
We look forward to working with the FroggyTalk team as they expand their impact and bring people closer together — across borders and generations.
