Brussels, September 15, 2026 — Wooclap, the active learning platform for live teaching and training, today announced the acquisition of Vevox, the UK-based audience engagement platform. Their shared ambition is to build the best platform to help teachers and trainers strengthen their impact in the AI era.

The combined group serves leading universities including Duke, University of Alberta, and Durham as well as enterprise customers such as Deloitte, BP, NHS, and Dior.

The acquisition comes one year after Impact Expansion's investment in Wooclap to accelerate its international expansion. Since then, Impact Expansion has supported Wooclap's growth ambitions, a journey that has now led to this acquisition.

Active pedagogy in live sessions: a must-have in the age of AI

As AI reshapes how education is delivered, the value of learning together will depend on experiences that are active, collaborative, and deeply engaging. No student can achieve that alone behind a screen. Tools that let learners engage, reflect, and cooperate in groups are becoming critical to the learning process.

Wooclap and Vevox have developed capabilities to enable just that: turning passive audiences into active participants.

Two complementary approaches to serve live engagement

Wooclap has built its expertise around active learning, combining learning science, neuroscience and technology to boost participation, foster critical thinking and improve learning outcomes.

Vevox has built its success around “Value Every Voice”, creating inclusive participation experiences that empower everyone to contribute and be heard. Together, these approaches create a powerful foundation for learning experiences that are more active, inclusive and effective.

An unmatched network of clients to support product innovation

The acquisition brings together more than two products. It unites two global communities of educators, trainers and instructional designers, giving the group direct insight into the priorities and feedback of over 1,000 institutions and businesses worldwide. This scale matters: it enables research at a larger level, the sharing of best practices across institutions, and a more precise response to the needs of each field.

“Bringing Wooclap and Vevox together is about more than combining two products, it's about combining two communities whose first priority is to maximize learning outcomes. We're building toward one goal: better and more inclusive learning.”  Baudouin Corman, CEO of Wooclap

“With Wooclap's team and its network alongside ours, we have the scale and trust to build the next generation of AI-powered engagement tools, designed with and for the people who teach and train.” Pete Eyre, Managing Director of Vevox

For now, Wooclap and Vevox will continue to operate as two platforms, and customers can continue using the products and services they rely on today. Over time, the ambition is to bring the best of both into a unified experience, built on intuitive design and a deep understanding of what educators, trainers, and learners need. Existing users can expect a seamless transition.
