After a 40 percent spike in international traffic in 2016, Airport Authority CEO Christina Cassotis said in a released statement that the partnership could lead to opportunities for signage and translation improvements for travelers. Duolingo heard about the airport’s initiative to expand international coverage and reached out, asking to become a sponsor.
“As we look to improve customer service and provide additional amenities for an increasingly global society and as we work to showcase more of our region’s innovation, we hope this is the first step in a long relationship with Duolingo and other successful tech firms in the region,” Cassotis said.
