History

[edit]

Kentico Software was founded in 2004 by Petr Palas to develop a .NET-based content management system.[4] The company’s first customer was Gibson Musical Instruments, which adopted the platform in 2005.[4]

In 2008, Kentico established its first international office in the United States.[4]

In 2022, Kentico received investment from Expedition Growth Capital.[15]

Following the investment, Kentico CMS and Kontent by Kentico were separated into independent companies.[16] Kentico Software continued development of its CMS product under the name Kentico Xperience, while Kontent by Kentico was rebranded as Kontent.ai.[17]
