With limited visibility, scarce data, and few tailored tools, they are still too often left out of skills development strategies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">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 \u2014 in a simple, practical way that keeps people at the heart of every process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #001f45;\"><b>A Clear Vision, Strong Growth, and Bold Ambition<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This vision has struck a chord.

Because we\u2019ve focused on delivering a solution that meets a real and pressing need \u2014 one that aligns HR priorities with productivity, operational efficiency and employee engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">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.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Accelerating Our Impact with This New Funding<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the backing of Endeit Capital, Side Capital and Ankaa Ventures, we\u2019re reaching a whole new level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This funding will enable us to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Double down on our efforts to take on-the-job, real-world skills management even further<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enhance our client support to ensure smoother, more impactful rollouts<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expand our presence across Europe \u2014 and beyond<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Ushering a New Era of Skills Management<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This isn\u2019t just a funding round.
