Gyver builds AI-powered workforce infrastructure and a conversational hiring platform aimed at electricians and industrial employers, seeking to replicate referral and word-of-mouth hiring processes. The company plans to expand beyond recruitment into upskilling, learning and workforce productivity tools for electricians. Its long-term roadmap includes providing modern technical tools for electrical design and PLC workflows to boost productivity across skilled trades. Gyver positions itself against a backdrop of growing demand for skilled blue-collar workers in Europe, where industry estimates project an additional 5.8 million workers will be needed by 2030. The startup was founded by Francesco Defendi, Leo Acciarri and Mattia Zarrelli and recently closed a €1.4M pre-seed round to fund product development and growth.
