We are a private non-profit organization. We were born in 1972, with the aim of bringing together science and Basque. We took the first steps as a cultural association, and in 2002 we became a foundation. Together with the foundation, the Elhuyar group also includes the companies Zubize SLU and Eleka Ingeniaritza linguistikoa SL.
Although science and the Basque language are still very important pillars, today we are an organization that offers services for the application of advanced knowledge. We help companies, social partners and administrations to find innovative solutions to respond to the challenges of globalisation with a multidisciplinary approach. To continue to be a reference in the development of the Basque language and Basque society, we collaborate with professionals in science, artificial intelligence, lexicography, translation, language management and social improvement.
Mission: to build, from the Basque language, an active, critical and egalitarian society, using technology and knowledge and betting on the dissemination of science.
