- Zynap joins more than 100 startups that Google selected from over 2,000 applications

Barcelona, Spain, November 5 2026 — Zynap, the preemptive security automation platform for MSSPs and enterprise security teams, has been selected for the fourth cohort of the Google for Startups Gemini Startup Forum. In November, co-founder and CFO Oriol Agustí will represent Zynap at the Forum’s in-person summit at Google’s Mountain View headquarters.
The program is for founders who have made AI central to how their companies grow. Zynap’s multi-agent AI engine, NINA, works across its platform and helps teams find what’s exploitable in their environment and close it through the tools they already have. Teams decide which actions run on their own and which wait for approval.
Darren Mowry, VP of Global Startups at Google Cloud, wrote in Google’s announcement, “Representing 17 countries from around the world, these startups are at the forefront of the AI revolution.”
Agustí said, “We started Zynap in Barcelona two years ago to build preemptive cybersecurity, and it’s good to be in a cohort with so many impressive founders. We’re looking forward to two days in the San Francisco Bay Area with them and with the people at Google DeepMind and Google Cloud. Thanks to Google for having us.”

Today’s announcement follows a busy few months for Zynap as the company enters its second phase. Since June, it has added Miguel Carrero to its board, appointed Haroon Sammaraie as Chief Technology Officer and achieved SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. It also launched NINA in July and Zynap Sandbox in September, and most recently an autonomous offensive agent. The company’s next major release is already in the works.
About Zynap
Zynap is the preemptive security automation platform for MSSPs and enterprise security teams.

Zynap is vendor and LLM agnostic and requires no rip and replace.
Founded in Barcelona in 2024, Zynap works with MSSPs and enterprise security teams across Europe and Latin America, and is backed by Kibo Ventures and Kfund.
