Our founding story

A decade into his first business in the freelancer space - PeoplePerHour.com - TalentDesk.io was the second brainchild of founder Xenios Thrasyvoulou. While the freelancer marketplace model was still booming, bigger companies that were relying on a substantial freelance workforce were now facing a new, distinct kind of pain: efficiently managing and paying their growing freelancer pool. TalentDesk.io was born to solve this problem.
