The company
Zenith is the native EVM execution layer for the Canton Network. Developers deploy unmodified Solidity contracts that interact atomically with Canton's institutional infrastructure and Ethereum tooling on Canton, where regulated assets settle. Zenith is also a Tier 1 Super Validator, with its weight hosted on the Canton Foundation's SV node, which IntellectEU operates.
