London 🇬🇧
Our HQ is in London, where you'll find 28 of us, including our Marketing, Sales, Partnerships, Customer Experience, People and Finance teams.
Where it began...
HowNow was founded in 2019, by Nelson, Kuvera, and Ashish. Meet them here.
Our mission, is to make meaningful learning a part of your everyday.
The Problem
Ask most people why they’re not learning, and they’ll probably tell you it’s a time issue.
Sure, that’s part of it, but there’s a much simpler and more straightforward question to answer.
Are your employees engaged in learning? Because without engagement, people don’t learn.
The Solution? HowNow..
HowNow is the skills-driven, one home for learning. An innovative, market-leading platform dedicated to helping employees achieve their full potential by unlocking access to knowledge & learning in the moment of need.
Through integrations with workplace tools like MS Teams & Slack, direct connection to internal tools & systems, and underpinned by 6000+ pieces of expert content from 40+ creators, HowNow gives every learner access to AI-driven personalised recommendations that foster flourishing learning cultures across global organisations.

Our Culture and Values
Culture isn't about the social activities. It's about working well together, to produce great work. Our culture has been crafted by the ways that we work together, and the collective values that we all share as a company. It lives in the people we hire, the ways that we communicate, and the way that we treat each other. Find out more on the links below.
