Darwinbox eyes expansion in MENA in new global growth strategy

Darwinbox, one of Asia’s fastest-growing HR tech platforms, has identified the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region as a key growth market as part of its global expansion. This follows its recent USD72mn funding round that gives it a valuation that crosses the USD1bn mark. The new funding will supercharge Darwinbox’s plans by allowing the company to accelerate its platform innovation agenda, and scale its go-to-market presence in MENA, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.

With its MENA regional office based in the Dubai, Darwinbox aims to invest aggressively and grow its team in the UAE. It is also staging the opening of its next GCC office in Saudi Arabia in the near future. Prioritizing product development for the region, Darwinbox will be launching its Arabic mobile app specifically tailored for MENA employees later this year.
