The company making electrification safe, affordable, and sca

Qnovo was founded in 2009 by battery scientists Dr. Nadim Maluf and Dania Ghantous. Well before the mainstream EV moment, they understood that the future of every industry ran on batteries — and that software, not hardware, was the key to unlocking their potential. Driven by Nadim's expertise in electrical engineering and Dania's background in consumer and medical devices, Qnovo built its platform at the intersection of electrochemistry and software. The result is the most complete battery management stack in the industry: a suite of tools covering performance optimization, health and safety diagnostics, and vehicle-lifetime battery tracking — all deployable without added hardware. Before expanding into automotive, Qnovo validated its approach at consumer scale: the company's software extended the life of more than 200 million smartphone batteries, reducing e-waste and establishing the operational foundation that now powers its EV platform. Today, Qnovo is the industry pioneer in intelligent lithium-ion battery management software and predictive analytics for electric vehicles, energy storage systems, and consumer devices. Its platform operates across three pillars: Performance: Charging optimization software that cuts fast-charge times to under 20 minutes, improves vehicle range by up to 10%, and extends battery lifecycle to nearly 1 million kilometers. Safety: Health and safety diagnostics that predict dangerous battery faults with 98.7% accuracy — weeks before conventional systems detect them. Accountability: Vehicle-lifetime health tracking that creates a permanent battery record for every vehicle, making the used EV market safer and more transparent for buyers and dealers alike. All three capabilities run in software. No new hardware required. In March 2026, Hyundai and Kia made a direct strategic investment in Qnovo — one of the clearest external validations the company has received that its technology is not just ready, but essential.
