Some companies are in the Business of Technology.
Others are in the Business of Finance…Or Sports…Or Soft Drinks.
At EF, we’re in a different kind of business.
One that’s a little less tangible, and a lot more important.
Because our business, what we make, makes everything else possible.
We’re in the Business of Understanding.
Between people. Between cultures.
