JAKALA was founded in 2000 by Matteo de Brabant, driven by an entrepreneurial vision shaped by curiosity, responsibility, and a strong sense of purpose.

The name JAKALA comes from Matteo’s scouting experience. More than a reference, it anticipated many of the values that continue to define us today: teamwork, adaptability, and the ability to navigate complexity with discipline and creativity. 

Those principles helped form our mindset and continue to guide how we build our company and work with our clients.

Over time, JAKALA has grown into a multifaceted, highly skilled international organization operating as One Team. 

Built by entrepreneurs and scaled through integration, JAKALA combines autonomy with collaboration, move fast, and focus on long-term value creation. 

Since 2021, Ardian has been our majority shareholder, supporting a model centered on integration, sustainable growth, and enduring impact.

Today, with headquarters in Milan and offices across Europe and beyond, we are building the European category leader in AI-powered, data-driven performance.

This is how we reduce noise, increase precision, and enable better decisions that drive measurable improvement.
