In an era where global communication is vital yet still often hindered by language barriers, a Ghanaian-British innovator is breaking new ground with a truly African born invention. Danny Manu, a UK-based engineer and founder of Mymanu, has developed a pair of wireless earbuds capable of translating up to 40 languages in real time, without requiring an internet connection.
Danny Manu - Innovative Entrepreneur & Angel Investor | Founder of Mymanu®
His invention, called Mymanu CLIK PRO, is a landmark advancement in the world of wearable tech, allowing users to seamlessly speak and understand foreign languages while on the go. It’s a leap toward frictionless global communication, and one that positions an African innovator at the forefront of a rapidly evolving space.
How Mymanu CLIK PRO Works
Unlike other real-time translation tools that depend heavily on Wi-Fi or cloud services, Mymanu CLIK PRO is designed for offline functionality, using embedded speech recognition and AI-driven translation engines. This makes it ideal not only for international travelers and business people, but also for users in remote areas with limited connectivity, a feature especially powerful in developing regions.
Users simply wear the earbuds, speak in their native language, and hear the translation spoken back in the selected language. The device currently supports over 40 languages, including Swahili, Arabic, Mandarin, French, and Spanish.
An African Innovator in Global Tech
Born to Ghanaian parents and educated at Oxford Brookes University, Manu stands out not just for his technical achievements but for representing African excellence in a sector dominated by Silicon Valley and East Asian giants.
He is one of a small but growing number of Black tech founders innovating in hardware, a field often seen as inaccessible due to high capital and manufacturing demands.
Global Recognition
Mymanu CLIK PRO has already gained significant international traction, with coverage in Forbes, CNN, and BBC, and preorders from over 120 countries. Manu was also listed among the Top 100 Black British Business Leaders and has been recognized for inspiring young African entrepreneurs in STEM.
The company is now expanding its product line, exploring integrations with tourism apps, humanitarian services, and international education platforms.
More Than a Gadget: A Vision for Inclusion
Danny Manu’s mission goes beyond technology. He is building a bridge, not just between languages, but between continents, people, and possibilities. In a time when the world is more connected yet more divided than ever, Mymanu CLIK PRO is a timely reminder that understanding begins with listening, and listening begins with access.
