Our take
Developing and maintaining talent is a big challenge for companies that are scaling quickly. Hibob are trying to be one of the solutions.
There are an increasing number of startups attracting huge amount of investment and being pushed to scale their business fast, meaning the customer base for Hibob's services is big and growing.
Hibob have attracted high profile customers like Monzo, eToro, and Receipt Bank, which gives them great credibility for selling to other companies.
Hibob's recent acquisition of Cassiopeia - a Workplace Relationships Analytics Startup, will afford companies better insights to improve team communications and support flexible work models. Together, they wish to offer thousands of companies the tools they need to maximize the employee experience in our increasingly digital world.
