Oraseya Capital reposted this
In recent years, it's become increasingly uncommon for the founders I engage with to not have distributed teams spanning multiple countries. Discussing how they manage their remote workforce, one name consistently stood out: RemotePass. Needless to say, our interest was piqued when we connected with Kamal Reggad and his team ahead of raising their A round. Heartiest congratulations to Kamal, Karim, and the entire RemotePass team for closing their $5.5M Series-A (oversubscribed!), led by 212 🚀 Our decision to invest in RemotePass was driven by Kamal and his team's impressive execution skills, coupled with their deep understanding of regulatory frameworks and compliance. The rapid growth of the remote work market is reshaping the workspace for both small and large enterprises. RemotePass' early entry into this space gives them a significant edge in the region, thanks to their highly scalable model and remarkable growth. We are eagerly anticipating RemotePass' continued innovation in the HR-tech sector, revolutionizing how companies onboard, manage, pay, and retain their remote workforce. Congratulations once again and we can’t be further excited about your next milestones. #RemoteWork #HRtech #SeriesA #Investment #OraseyaCapital #techcrunch https://lnkd.in/dcAsN9hb
