"We will primarily invest in important functional enhancements to our skills platform as well as in the Europe-wide expansion of our sales and customer success activities, not only to strengthen existing markets but also to open up new ones. Our working world is currently undergoing fundamental changes; people and their individual skills are at the center of this. We want to promote transparency and self-determination with our solution, so that employees and employers benefit equally."
