History & Development
Originally founded as Literacy Bridge in 2006, Amplio Network was established with the vision to solve global poverty by addressing illiteracy challenges in low-income countries through inclusive digital technology. The organization pioneered the development of the Amplio Talking Book, a durable, cost-effective audio device designed for people with low literacy. Initially conceived as a tool to enhance literacy skills among school children, the Talking Book found unexpected applications as a portable tool for disseminating crucial health and agricultural education in remote areas.
In 2017, we changed our name to Amplio Network. "Amplio" is a Latin verb that means “to make wider, increase, extend, amplify.” Our name speaks volumes. Today, the Amplio Talking Book program has reached over two million people in 14 countries. Our technology is helping to improve program reach, message quality, and community engagement across many issues—leading to greater social impact.
