This innovation initially came to life when…
We realised that although there are 6.8 billion people of the earth, only 2 billion have the Internet. However, they are now getting online at record rates. While people join up, looking to improve their socio-economic situation, the Internet began delivering a tectonic shift to the global labourforce.
Freelancer.com was created to facilitate this shift — by connecting businesses of all sizes to the world’s largest liquid workforce — over 2.3 million professionals.
