About Qalea
Qalea is a fast-growing cybersecurity startup on a mission to make digital security intuitive and affordable for every business. Based in Barcelona, we set out to be different from the typical startup: instead of chasing hype, we're laser-focused on solving a real problem that businesses face every day. Our platform combines cutting-edge technology with a user-friendly approach, so even companies without big IT teams can stay safe. At Qalea, we believe cybersecurity doesn’t have to be complicated – and we’re proving it one customer at a time.
We are backed by top-notch investors, from cybersecuriy-unicorn-founders to more institutional investors. Our current funding is above 1M€ and our ambition is unstoppable. We are also part of the AI Cybersecurity cohort of Google for Startups; having them coaching us, and showing us the real cutting edge of the product side is a blast! 🚀

Our story
Qalea began as a bold idea in 2023 when our founders realized how many companies struggled with cybersecurity. Starting out in Olmo’s appartment, both funders built our first prototype and saw early clients quickly embrace our solution.
