Our mission is to "provide the tools to organise information across the enterprise." Jadu's underpinning 'semantic-web' strategy is "to make content accessible to humans and machines".
The Jadu content management system was originally developed for the Department of Trade and Industry (now the UK Deptartment for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform) in 2001 by Jadu's founder Suraj Kika and original developer Richard Chamberlain.
After a two year period of research and development, Jadu (version 2) was then made available to the commercial private sector and in October 2003, the company became incorporated as Jadu Limited.
Early
in 2003, Jadu redeveloped the software to comply with new government
standards set by the Office of the eEnvoy, in preparation for the
government's 2005 eGovernment agenda (eGIF). The new system was adopted by both Kettering Borough Council and the DTI, with the software's development aligned to Central Government's Priority Outcomes.
Jadu have developed technology and functionality that reaches far beyond managing content - from intelligence reporting to transactional product management systems in use by commercial, government and education sector organisations.
Most of our investment goes into research and development to build new and innovative ways to make the content management and publishing process easier, more accessible and more powerful.
Taking advantage of the latest innovations in technology and web-based software delivery - Jadu are fronting the publishing revolution by developing social computing applications that can easily be delivered by 'non-technical' people.
