Hakoona is born out of the pursuit to make data discipline simple and accessible for everyone in the business. Before there was Hakoona, there was a Think Tank .

Before there was a Think Tank, there was a frustration with so many datacentric initiatives failing, so much complexity in the Data domain, and a gap between the Business and the IT that seemed to grow only larger as technology progressed.

We have been there. We have seen cutting-edge innovation projects being shut down because data could not be delivered on time and with quality required, while stakeholder commitment dwindled and disappeared, and sponsor focus shifted elsewhere.

We know first-hand how hard it is to help an organisation become data-driven.

We had an ambition to make a change. For over 5 years we worked on approaches and accelerators to enable datacentric initiatives to succeed. Together with industry and Academia innovators from all over the world, we created, tested, and perfected our methodology and expanded our toolkit with smart solutions to help reduce time-to-data for everyone.

We used it to help companies in the Research, Utilities, Oil & Gas, Distribution, and Financial sectors to exchange data with their industry peers, deliver digital initiatives, rescue failing Digital Transformation programs, make a first step towards AI adoption, and integrate newly acquired companies.

Now with Hakoona, we can bring it to you.

For Community Profit

Did you know that if companies allocated just 15% of the cost of their failed digital initiatives to helping the world, that would be enough to achieve universal access to safe drinking water?

We believe that every great idea must make an impact on humanity and the planet. This is why we created Hakoona as a For Community Profit enterprise. Our contributions are linked to our results. This is how we do it:

• Our A Share To Care program ensures that a part of our dividends - and our exit proceedings - is allocated to charities supporting universal education, the fight against hunger, and the restoration of the nature
• We partner with Fenyx Foundation in the Netherlands, aiming at educating and providing job opportunities to refugees. Our experts teach Data Management, Data Engineering, and Data Science courses, and provide mentoring to the graduates
• We have special rates and offerings for non-profit organisations. Our Partnerships for a Better World program helps these charities leverage their data to achieve results by benefitting from our expertise and innovation.
