Our Origin
How HumanaQ started.
HumanaQ was born from a personal journey through legacy, transition, and insight. As a young boy, Simone, founder & CEO of HumanaQ, witnessed the succession of his grandfather's business, one where when it came time to pass it on, the family, having seen how much effort it took to run, were not interested in continuing it.
That experience shaped a conviction: succession is not about handing over the keys. It is about preserving the way a business actually works.
That insight led to HumanaQ, a name which derives from human-acquisition, where human capital is the key element.
Today, we are the first AI solution for M&A execution risk and behavioral leadership intelligence.
