Elium, previously referred to as Knowledge Plaza, is a Software as a Service used for enterprise knowledge sharing within organisations. It supports use cases for knowledge management, social bookmarking, document management, wikis and internal social network. It was initially designed as an information management tool for knowledge workers and is often used for collaborative research projects, market intelligence, information brokerage, etc.

The vendor's company, Whatever S.A., has its headquarters based at the Louvain-la-Neuve Science Park (Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium) and offices in Geneva, Switzerland. In September 2013, it announced the acquisition of Swiss social publishing company Hyperweek.[1]

In an annual benchmark carried out by French consultancy firm Lecko (previously named USEO),[2] Elium is referred to as the pioneer of social knowledge management tools amongst the more generic family of enterprise social software. The analysis concludes that Elium strikes a balance between a traditional document management system and more community-orientated environments such as Jive SBS.

In March 2017, Knowledge Plaza changed its name to Elium.[3]

In August 2017, Elium announced the closing of a Series A funding round for €4 million led by Serena Capital in collaboration with S.R.I.W.[4]
