What if skills development became the driving force behind operational performance?
At Klara, this has been our belief since day one. And this £8.5 million funding round isn’t just a number — it is a major step forward in our ambition.

Frontline Workers: The Forgotten Workforce in Skills Development
80% of the global workforce operates on the frontline. With limited visibility, scarce data, and few tailored tools, they are still too often left out of skills development strategies.
At Klara, we set out to change that. From the very beginning, the vision of Nazim Chibane and Romain Etay was clear: to equip organisations with the means to structure, scale, and manage the upskilling of their frontline teams — in a simple, practical way that keeps people at the heart of every process.
A Clear Vision, Strong Growth, and Bold Ambition
This vision has struck a chord. In 2024, we achieved 175% growth.
Why? Because we’ve focused on delivering a solution that meets a real and pressing need — one that aligns HR priorities with productivity, operational efficiency and employee engagement.
Major organisations like Safran, Carrefour, BPRI, and many others have already embraced this shift: skills are a key driver of transformation. And even more so when they are measured, managed, and optimised.
Accelerating Our Impact with This New Funding
With the backing of Endeit Capital, Side Capital and Ankaa Ventures, we’re reaching a whole new level.
This funding will enable us to:
- Double down on our efforts to take on-the-job, real-world skills management even further
- Enhance our client support to ensure smoother, more impactful rollouts
- Expand our presence across Europe — and beyond
Ushering a New Era of Skills Management
This isn’t just a funding round. It’s a strong signal – a move up a gear.
Skills shouldn’t be seen as a side topic for HR. They are a strategic cornerstone, a crucial pillar, a core driver of performance in their own right.
Our goal is that tomorrow, every team member — whether in an office or out in the field — has access to the right tools to grow, adapt, and perform at their best.
A Heartfelt Thank You
We haven’t reached this milestone alone.
Thank you to our clients for your trust, to our partners for your commitment, and to our teams for your dedication.
Together, we’re shaping a new vision for skills development.
And we’re only just getting started.
