Opis firmy
We are not just a company. We are a team of professionals fully devoted to our vision with great founders. Antoni and Bartosz worked together on 150+ audit and consulting projects in banking, insurance and FMCG sectors. They combined experience ranges from IT systems administration, IT auditing and penetration testing to building and developing managerial effectiveness on behalf of KPMG. They are holding international certificates which confirm their qualification: CISA, CISM, CEH, CCNA, MCSA.
The founders met in 2011 during their time at KPMG. Despite coming from different backgrounds - Bartosz was head of cybersecurity at LOT, the leading Polish airline, while Antoni was setting up his own company - they shared a similar vision. Aware of the increase in cybercrime, data theft and the number of security incidents that were growing exponentially, and with the experience of dealing with companies that did not employ any security standards, they decided to launch CyberStudio. Initially, they acted as "independent consultants" providing services as an alternative to the high prices of other solutions. Then came the idea of automating the process, which came to fruition in 2019 with the creation of the company, which has grown successfully since then.
In 2020 and 2021 we partnered with first investors: ltcapital.vc & satus.vc. Additionally, we cooperate with the Polish government agencies: www.paih.gov.pl/en and www.gov.pl/web/ncbr-en . We focus both on public and private sectors. But more exciting fact is that a few successful serial entrepreneurs with real exits support us as business angels. And finally, we are developing our technology in cooperation with top Universities, government organizations like cybersecurity centers and a concern from the defense industry.
We are moving forward confidently and skyrocketing our MoM metrics. Already over 20 companies trust on our expertise, with a promising pipeline that keep growing each month. We have also build a Partner Program for integrators. They like our products so much - that they are selling it to their clients.

Opis innowacji [1/2 - A4]
We have developed a black box, all-in-one platform which successfully manages company’s cybersecurity. Our solution was designed particularly with small and medium companies in mind. We developed a corporate level cyber risk management platform which requires little to no technical knowledge to operate. We offer a unified platform of tools that can be useful from both technical and management perspective. What is unique, that our solution includes artificial intelligence module.
We are not another IT complex solution but a product easy to use for business managers and C-level executives, so they can be aware of everything that is happening inside their organization. Our solutions also free IT teams from cybersecurity responsibilities (which are usually not among their tasks and area of expertise) thanks to the huge level of automatization.
Telescope is an automated organizational cybersecurity audit tool. The solution performs an automated assessment of the company's current protection, providing detailed information and customized recommendations that will be ordered according to the assigned risk level, prioritizing any possible critical weaknesses.
Cyber Studio is a comprehensive solution that fully protects your company from external risks and internal threats by providing continuous analysis of the business environment. Anomaly detection follows behavioural patterns and is clearly represented on the platform's dashboard, so an executive can easily assess the maturity level of his or her organization, assign tasks to other departments and evaluate the possible improvements indicated. As a result, your organization is constantly protected, and all threat information reaches you as quickly as possible.
There’re many vectors of attack: hackers, competitors, malicious and even non-compliant employees. In enterprise level solutions these are threated globally. We’re the first who brings comprehensive perspective – “enterprise-level security for SMEs”.
Target audience are medium size enterprises (50-250 employees) with already an IT team among their staff but with lack of cybersecurity expertise and/or professionals. We focus on specified sectors as: industry, automotive, healthcare, real estate and hotels.
The lack of ICT personnel is estimated to almost reach 3 million people in Europe by 2023 while there were more than twice as many cyber-attacks against "critical sectors”. Internally, budget restrictions have left medium sized companies apart from big enterprises, with only 42% of them with an ICT employee among their staff, 5 times less than the enterprises' percentage. To face this situation, Sagenso is providing solutions understandable for business managers to keep business continuity, while providing a 20% of increase in IT department efficiency and more than 80% savings in IT security.

Dlaczego ta innowacja zasługuje na nagrodę? [1/2 - A4]
Sagenso provides solutions that help secure sensitive infrastructure, specially in the manufacturing sector. After its soft landing in Basque Country, the most industrial region in Spain, the company will collaborate with all the ecosystem agents to guarantee affordable and innovative solutions that provide peace of mind to industrial companies by keeping the continuity of their business processes.
Sagenso aim to collaborate with the different stakeholders of the ecosystem to provide suitable solutions for their clients. We already have experience collaborating with goverment institutions as Bizkaia Beaz and Basque Cybersecurity Centre in Spain, The National Centre of Research and Development in Poland, multiple universities and national and international CERTS, as well as world wide startups from different sectors. Among all of our R&D and collaboration projects, we keep sustainable goals very present so our actions with the community can have the higher positive impact as possible.
After taking part in Startup Wise Guys Accelerator (the best European B2B Accelerator), we are opening our first international subsidiaries in Italy and Spain and starting our team in Bilbao with already potential distributors and clients as well as local partners.
Our Go-to-market strategy, in addition to generic growth and a classic cooperation with distributors, is based on market penetration through contracts with corporate clients. Best example is a 3+ year deal with Toyota and Lexus, which at this moment includes implementation in 200 car dealers in 4 countries (CZ / SK / PL / HU), which are medium sized companies who also became our clients. We are currently copying this approach to other organizations with a similar (group) structure.
