This investment marks a significant milestone in Kahuna’s growth journey and solidifies the criticality of skills management for industries with technical frontline workforces.
As organizations navigate an ever-evolving and complex landscape, understanding, validating, and aligning workforce skills to strategic business objectives is central to operating at the highest level. Kahuna is at the forefront of skills management technology, equipping organizations with actionable skill insights for effective assessment, training and development, and staffing and deployment initiatives, ultimately enabling resilient operations, improved productivity, and a more competitive workforce.
Kahuna’s customer base of leading Fortune 500 energy, manufacturing, and field service organizations, and world-renowned healthcare systems, is a testament to the platform’s scalability and robustness in meeting the rigorous demands of complex operational needs.

Parse Biosciences, the leading provider of scalable and accessible single cell sequencing solutions, today announced a collaboration with Codebreaker Labs to develop and validate a breakthrough platform capable of testing thousands of genetic variants in parallel and measuring their effects at single cell resolution.

As a result, even the most advanced models trained on observational datas
