Fact Y2tpRyArBg
The claim states the founded date as 2017-01 (January 2017). The Wikidata source confirms this through multiple data points: (1) the CEO John-Arne Røttinger's start time is listed as 'January 2017', (2) the location of formation is 'World Economic Forum' (consistent with Davos launch), and (3) the additional context explicitly confirms the formal public launch was January 2017 at the World Economic Forum in Davos. While Wikidata also lists an earlier 'inception' date of 30 August 2016 (the incorporation date), the claim correctly distinguishes between incorporation and formal public launch, using the latter. The source supports the January 2017 date as the founded/launch date.

NoteThe source text explicitly states the inception date as '30 August 2016', which corresponds to August 2016 (2016-08). The claim uses the format 2016-08 (year-month), while the source provides the full date including the day (30 August 2016), but both refer to the same month and year of founding.
