The vendor's company, Whatever S.A., has its headquarters based at the Louvain-la-Neuve Science Park (Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium) and offices in Geneva, Switzerland. In September 2013, it announced the acquisition of Swiss social publishing company Hyperweek.[1]
In an annual benchmark carried out by French consultancy firm Lecko (previously named USEO),[2] Elium is referred to as the pioneer of social knowledge management tools amongst the more generic family of enterprise social software. The analysis concludes that Elium strikes a balance between a traditional document management system and more community-orientated environments such as Jive SBS.
In March 2017, Knowledge Plaza changed its name to Elium.[3]
In August 2017, Elium announced the closing of a Series A funding round for €4 million led by Serena Capital in collaboration with S.R.I.W.[4]
Elium applies a collective classification mechanism to all information formats including websites (like Delicious), as well as documents, contacts, e-mails, book references and wikis – as underlined by the comparison of enterprise bookmarking platforms.
