The story behind

Founded in 2025, Navilo started with the simple idea: Equip universities and enterprises to move through stagnation and swiftly launch transformative solutions for a world of work in constant upheaval.
Drawing on over a decade of global experience with organizations like Apple, Stanford University, and DHL, founder Michael brings a proven, results-driven approach to education transformation, one focused on building skills that matter and delivering a return-on-investment. After starting Groundflr (course development) and Traverse (AI-simulation and assessments), Navilo is Michael's 3rd venture, capturing all of the knowledge and experience into measurable education innovation.
The word "navilo" stands for being a guiding force in education transformation, a navigator helping institutions move confidently toward future-ready solutions.
From Cape Town to California to Sydney, Navilo delivers productized services that combine future forecasting with practical solutions and the latest datasets, enabling partners to design future-proof systems, products, and people strategies. In an era where AI is reshaping every career, Navilo’s mission is simple: close the gap between skills and the workforce; faster and with greater accuracy through predictive analysis.
