Ekoz Technology was invited to participate to Seedcamp Paris 2008, an event co-organised by Microsoft and the Seedcamp team, in Microsoft’s very elegant offices in Paris VIIe.

Ekoz was selected among the 20 sexiest start-ups, to present its technology and business in front of a panel of investors and mentors, dedicated to help and promote the most promising companies. This event was covered by Mike Butcher from Techcrunch UK.

French freelance ICT consultant and former Microsoft Chief Marketing Officier for France Olivier Ezratty posted a long and interesting article about Ekoz Technology’s applications in the database industry (in french).

We met with Olivier a few days ago, and had very intresting talks about technology, innovation, and the database market. Dominated by well-known editors like Microsoft, Oracle, Sybase or IBM, database technology has seen very few new entrants except MySQL in the last ten years. More interesting, there has been no drastic evolution in the technology of data representation for database systems. For the last twenty years, most efforts in those companies R&D teams have been dedicated to the application portfolio, from reporting to dashboarding, from ERPing to CRMing.

At Ekoz, we have dedicated our time to the data representation problem, and brought very innovative solutions that completely revolutionize the performance of such systems. When traditional relational database technology requires OLAP and hypercubes approaches, our technology offers the first path towards Real Time Business Intelligence.
