Ekory is an AI-powered Knowledge Intelligence platform that helps companies organize and activate their internal knowledge. It unifies scattered content (documents, manuals, videos, policies) and transforms it into active learning experiences, allowing employees to interact with AI tutors trained on internal knowledge and receive personalized answers, insights, and training programs that adapt over time.

ZNEXT is backing Ekory as co-founder with an initial pre-seed investment of €150.000, ongoing operational support, access to specialized expertise, and the Group's network. The launch is the first step of ZNEXT's industrial plan, which targets startups and strategic acquisitions over the coming years.

"The knowledge and know-how of people are the true strategic asset of a company, but they are often trapped in departmental silos. With our platform, all of this comes to life, becomes easily navigable, and is continuously updated. The name Ekory reflects this vision: the ekos are the AI agents that amplify and return internal knowledge, while the reference to memory expresses the platform's ability to preserve it and transform it into active, personalized learning."
Alfredo Palena, Co-founder & CTO

"Ekory exemplifies the vision behind ZNEXT: building high-tech ventures capable of generating concrete, long-term impact. It offers an immediate and scalable response to a challenge every company faces: turning internal knowledge into a competitive advantage and freeing people from repetitive tasks so they can focus on strategic work. Ekory is the ideal starting point for our venture building program and for the kind of innovation we want to build."
Elena Lavezzi, CEO of ZNEXT
