Impactpool Career Podcast

Marko Vuoriheimo is the founder and CEO of Chabla in Finland. Chabla is a mobile app that allows deaf to make and receive phone calls through an interpreter. In this episode, Marko explains how Chabla works and the background to why he started it. Marko is using sign language and the voice we hear in the podcast is the translator’s. - Just spontaneously want to go to a bank and discuss with somebody, I can’t do that because I’m deaf and all hearing people seem to be afraid of me if I do that. So this was something I got really fed up with and I decided that I wanted to do something about this problem myself, I wanted to find a solution, says Marko Vuoriheimo.
