ZENTRIQ

Europe’s Standard for Ethical Enterprise

Built by the ITECA Foundation. Trusted by regulators, banks, and enterprises.
ZENTRIQ is the operating system for verified governance, compliance, and risk management in micro and small European companies.

ITECA Foundation

Public Responsibility in a Private Economy
The ITECA Foundation is an independent, non-profit institution. We exist to define and protect the foundational structures that support ethical entrepreneurship across Europe.

Our work focuses on one question: how can small businesses be made structurally safe, verifiable, and aligned with the demands of law, finance, and society—without losing their soul?

ITECA develops systems, not services.
We certify method, not opinion.
We protect trust, not transactions.

ZENTRIQ – The Operating System for Integrity

ZENTRIQ is the framework, standard, and operational logic used by companies certified under the ITECA Foundation.

It is a complete, modular system for governance, compliance, and operational risk. It is designed specifically for micro and small enterprises—the most exposed, yet least supported economic actors in Europe.

ZENTRIQ is not available for purchase.
It is granted only to companies certified by ITECA-approved entities under strict compliance with the Foundation’s charter.

ZENTRIQ includes:

• A unified data structure for financial and behavioral integrity

• Role-based operational protocol (Controller, Investigator, Auditor)

• Built-in AML, KYC, HR onboarding, invoice verification, and third-party screening

• Compliance tools structured for Dutch and EU regulatory environments

• Cultural and linguistic risk assessment models

• Mandatory audit layers, with visible trails and time-stamped verifications

For Institutions, Banks & Supervisors

If you represent a public interest body, we welcome your scrutiny.
ZENTRIQ systems are auditable by design, and our charter guarantees transparency, traceability, and enforcement rights.

ITECA maintains direct dialogue with:

• European regulatory bodies

• Dutch tax authorities

• Banks and financial institutions

• Public registries and chambers of commerce

• Anti-fraud task forces and ethics committees

For Micro and Small Enterprises

Are you building a company that will last?
ZENTRIQ does not promise growth. It enables continuity.
It does not promise speed. It guarantees structure.

ZENTRIQ is not suitable for everyone.

It is designed for those who wish to be trusted—not just seen.

To be part of the certified ecosystem:

1. You must undergo independent assessment by one of the ZENTRIQ-aligned entities.

2. You must commit to quarterly audits, role-based data discipline, and transparent processes.

3. You must adopt a culture of responsibility that goes beyond compliance.
