Organisations we collaborate with.
This page covers organisations we cross-refer with, collaborate alongside, or are structurally connected to. Where we have also built technology for an organisation, that work lives at Mendee Studio.
Collaborators & foundational relationships
Who we work alongside.

TERN — The Entrepreneurial Refugee Network
FoundationalTERN incubated Mendee from the start. The founder is a TERN alum; TERN backed us through every grant (QMUL, GLA Challenge LDN, Innovate UK); and TERN is named as the asset-locked body on the Mendee CIC36 — if the CIC ever winds down, its assets pass to TERN, never to individuals. Through TERN's WebBooster programme, we also build websites for refugee founders.

Origin of our translation practice
International Confederation of Midwives (ICM)
In 2022, the ICM ran a programme in Kyrgyzstan that needed document translation and live-meeting interpretation. That project is the origin of PRVD.LDN — our certified translation practice. It's not an ongoing collaboration; it's where the translation work began.
See translation services →Collaboration vs client work
Some organisations above are both collaborators and clients — we've built technology for them. We don't call client work "partnership" to make it sound more. The builds live at Studio, where you can see what we made and for whom.

Commission a build, not a "partnership".
If you're a mission-aligned organisation with a real information or technology problem, tell us about it. We're selective — we work with organisations where the mission passes the filter. Start with an email.
