Our story

Every age has its moment.

The digital age took root in 1982, when TIME Magazine named the personal computer Machine of The Year — a watershed moment. From there the mobile phone followed and our societies changed forever. With Artificial Intelligence the digital age just got transformed again.

As we navigate the crossroads of globalisation and communities, our societies are changing profoundly: the way we consume information, the news we follow and our conversations therefrom are changing fundamentally.

Each transformation has taught us one truth:

The new moment matters.

Welcome to the moment. Welcome to LekeeLekee.

Where we are headed

This is just the beginning.

Every great platform started exactly like this: with a small group of people who believed in something before the world caught on. What you see today is the foundation. From here we will grow into shopping, music streaming, dating and more.
