PowerUs Just Got The Power
The apparent lack of qualified staff on the market, especially considering the energy transition, has been good news not only for HR agencies. PowerUs is a career platform that specifically targets electronics technicians and plant mechanics. With 80,000 technicians and 850 companies registered, the platform is not as niche as it may initially appear. “PowerUs wants to create a digital home for tradespeople – a place where experts are among themselves,” says co-founder Konrad Geiger. They have just successfully raised €24M in a series B funding round, as Startbase reports. The new money is to be used to further improve user experience, develop new features, as well as for growth and additional services.
