The aim of the new corporate start-up is to combine KEBA’s decades of software expertise with the AI capabilities of 7LYTIX GmbH, integrated in 2025, to create genuinely industry-grade AI solutions that are offered independently of KEBA hardware.
Industry Expertise Meets AI Competence
KEBA has more than 40 years of experience developing sophisticated software solutions for industrial applications. KEBA DIGITAL builds on this strong foundation of domain knowledge, systems expertise, and technological excellence. The new business unit develops digital solutions that help companies streamline processes, unlock the value of their data, and make faster, better-informed decisions. In doing so, KEBA DIGITAL combines AI and software expertise with a deep understanding of real-world industrial value creation.
„Software is a core component of all KEBA products – from industrial controllers and ATMs to parcel lockers and charging infrastructure. With KEBA DIGITAL, we are now offering this expertise for the first time in a hardware-independent form, as AI services and industry-grade platforms.“
“As a manufacturing company, we know exactly what industry needs to bring AI into real value creation. We experience this every day in our own plants and processes. Building on this, and in contrast to pure software providers, KEBA DIGITAL consistently aligns itself with real, value-adding workflows. Our process and decision-making understanding, developed over decades of practice, enables us both to support companies with individual AI solutions and to offer standardized, scalable digital products and platforms,”, explains Christoph Knogler, CEO of KEBA Group AG.
Digital Solutions for Real Value Creation
KEBA DIGITAL supports companies throughout their digital transformation – from strategic consulting and the development of intelligent software solutions through to digital products and the reliable operation of modern software environments. The focus is on scalable, robust, and practice-oriented solutions geared towards real value creation – in industrial applications as well as in regulated sectors such as healthcare and financial services. AI is not an isolated technology element here, but an integral part of industry-grade software architectures.
Leadership Team with Software and Industry Expertise
KEBA DIGITAL is led operationally by CEO Sulejman Ganibegovic and CTO Hannes Kaufmann. Together, they combine entrepreneurial experience in building digital products with deep industrial software and systems expertise.
Digital solutions designed to be market-ready and scalable from day one
Sulejman Ganibegovic, CEO of KEBA DIGITAL, is a seasoned entrepreneur who has been part of KEBA Group for over a year. He brings experience from building and scaling software companies, including a successful exit, and is committed to developing digital solutions that are market-ready and scalable from day one.
Hannes Kaufmann, CTO of KEBA DIGITAL, represents the technological backbone of the new business unit. As the long-standing Head of Software Development at KEBA Industrial Automation, he was responsible for software architectures in highly critical industrial environments, including robotics and production systems. His expertise in developing, integrating, and operating industrial software systems shapes the technical execution at KEBA DIGITAL.
“Our ambition is to develop digital solutions that are not only technologically convincing, but deliver genuine value in everyday use.”
With the launch of KEBA DIGITAL, KEBA reinforces its commitment to shaping digital transformation and strengthening its role as a technology partner.
