QlikTech was founded in 1993 as a consulting company. The office was established in Lund, Sweden at Ideon, one of the oldest science parks in the world. One of the company's first assignments was to develop a tool for analyzing multi-dimensional data. While developing a solution for this customer, it struck the founders that this was also a solution to a general problem that many organizations have. This led to the development of QlikTech's patented in-memory associative technology. At the end of 2004, Accel Partners and Jerusalem Venture Partners, the premier global venture capitalists made an investment in taking QlikView global. Since then the growth has been rapid. Today QlikView has more than 457,000 users in 92 countries, over 10,000 customers, and continues to add an average of 14 customers every day.
