History
K2view was founded in 2009 by Achi Rotem and Rafi Cohen,[2] both former executives of global telecommunications technology companies Amdocs, Sprint-Nextel, and TTI,[3] and named after K2, the second-highest mountain on Earth and one of the hardest to climb on.[4]
During the 2010s, K2view was the data migration platform for several global telecommunications M&A and transformation projects. These included the Telefónica Argentina transformation by Amdocs in 2012, AT&T's acquisitions of DIRECTV in 2014, Iusacell in 2015, and Nextel Mexico in 2015, the Kcell JSC transformation by Amdocs in 2015, the Liberty Global–Vodafone merger in 2016, and the Entel Chile transformation by Ericsson in 2017.[5]
K2view was granted US patents for its Cloud Database Management System (CDBMS) in 2019,[6] and for its Encryption Directed Database Management System and method in 2020.[7][8]
In 2020, the company raised US$28M in first-round financing led by Forestay Capital and with the participation of Genesis Partners.[3][9][10]
In 2020, it launched its Data Fabric product for real-time data integration, governance, and delivery[11] and announced further operational enhancements in 2021.[12] In 2022, it launched its cloud-based Data Product Platform.

In 2023, the company released its AI-powered synthetic data generation service.[18][19][20] Ronen Schwartz was appointed as its new CEO.
In 2024, K2view introduced its AI Data Fusion product, enhancing Generative AI frameworks by integrating structured enterprise data into Large Language Models like OpenAI ChatGPT and Google Gemini.[21] In the same year, K2view secured an additional US$15 million in growth financing from Trinity Capital.[22]
