As an HR technology provider ‘from Asia to the World’, Southeast Asia (SEA) is a key region for us. Thailand, which is SEA’s 2nd largest economy, is set for an exponential growth owing to its increasing appetite for digitalization and adoption of remote working, which necessitates organizations to embark on HR digital transformation journey. What the country needs is a global platform and people that understand the unique nuances of the country.- Jayant Paleti, Co-Founder, Darwinbox
