Our take

In today's data-driven world, the need for robust data protection solutions has never been more urgent. Zama addresses this by pioneering fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), a groundbreaking technique that enables computations over encrypted data without compromising privacy.

By democratising access to FHE through open-source cryptographic libraries and solutions, Zama allows developers to build privacy-preserving applications across various sectors, from blockchain and AI to healthcare and governmental security. Its community of over 3,000 developers signifies a collaborative effort to innovate while also ensuring data security remains paramount, fostering a future where privacy is synonymous with progress.

An injection of funding in 2025 will fuel Zama's expansion, enabling it to develop and commercialise its FHE technology. As the company continues to push the boundaries of data privacy, it has the chance to cement its position as a leader in the field.
