What a night for team Gig and Take! We won 🎉 the 'Best Startup Award' at #modex - one of the largest supply chain conferences (45k attendees this year)! What makes it special is the independent judges - industry professionals from organizations tagged below who all themselves feel the pain we are working to address. In case you needed a sign whether Flex Work is for your Factory, this is it!

What an incredible few days at the Women in Manufacturing (#WiM) 2024 Summit in Boston this week! #WiM2024 This event/org holds a special place in my heart, bringing me full circle to why I started Wilya in the first place. A few years ago, I read a news story about millions of women wanting to leave the workforce due to a lack of flexibility. Ten days later, I quit my job to start Wilya. At WiM Boston, I had the honor of moderating a panel on "Flexibility for Frontline Workers: A Skills-Based Approach" with some brilliant minds: Sara Golden from Volvo, Marla DeFrank and Susan Wallace from Carlisle Companies. We dove deep into the challenges and opportunities of creating flexible work options in our industry. Thanks again Susan for seeding this idea! To all the amazing leaders I met - you're not just shaping the future of the industry, you're the reason Wilya exists. It's exciting and humbling to be on this journey with you. Sara Golden, Marla DeFrank , Susan Wallace - thank you for bringing your expertise and insights to our panel. You rock! PS: a special shoutout to Liz Palmer - learnt so much from your session - and thank you for inspiring us to think much broadly about flexible scheduling!

2️⃣ 🏅 We see two main strategies to overcome #laborshortages and #skillsgaps in factories: better utilization of your existing workforce, and attracting and retaining new talent. Good news: both can be achieved with one, unified solution. Join our webinar next Wednesday to learn how to: 1) enable strategic and efficient worker deployment, from daily shift coverages to strategic planning through a digitized #skillsmatrix, and 2) unlock new pools of highly-skilled talent by enabling #flexwork, a benefit that is increasingly one of the most sought-after among today's job seekers.

What do Rosie the Riveter & Gartner have in common? This month, both made a terrific endorsement of our mission at Wilya to bring more flexible work options to factory frontlines! Graphic below from Gartner and the link in comments for a 90-second commercial promoting manufacturing jobs. Note: the first part of this commercial will give you secondhand anxiety! #flexibility #futureofwork #manufacturing #factory #supplychain #wilya

👨🏭 Skilled labor in manufacturing and supply chain is in short supply and difficult to manage. Nearly 50% of manufacturers say they have turned down work due to lack of labor. There is a 2.1M factory worker shortage predicted for 2030, costing ~$1T in productivity. Clearly, companies need solutions to address the unique labor challenges impacting factories and facilities. Enter Wilya, a cutting-edge platform for flexible work and skills digitization managing existing labor pools. We were excited to lead the company’s $4M Seed round and back co-founders CEO Rahil Siddiqui and CTO Gnan Vrath as they expand this innovative platform that allows companies in manufacturing and supply chain to flexibly deploy the right worker for the right job at the right time. 👉 Read more on Why We Invested in Wilya: https://lnkd.in/giXbBm4H Ty Findley Colleen Konetzke
