Stage 2 Capital invested 5 million in the tech-talent marketplace, which will be used to double down on its strategy of matching companies with talent from all over the world.
The Germany-based startup plans to use the funding to build new hubs in Africa and Europe, grow its team, and re-launch its proprietary platform to make it easier to find tech talent.
Following the launch of a new hub in Egypt that will be used to tap talent in Africa, the plan is to create more networks in the region. The hubs, which include the existing ones in Lisbon and Tbilisi, are intended to help its more than 100 clients hire local talent without having to establish operations in those countries.
Entering Egypt is the first step in our journey to bring the whole of Africa into the global talent pool. Setting up a local presence and working closely with local talent will allow us to open this market to our clients. With interesting projects from world's leading product companies comes knowledge transfer that the local senior talent wants, just as much as fair working rates.

Wense, who founded the startup in 2020, said that the company acts as an Employer of Record, which allows it to manage the whole recruiting process. Recruiters don't have to worry about the lengthy recruitment process and paperwork.
It is possible for our clients and other global companies to scale their products and engineering teams in Egypt. We can give them complete legal infrastructure to permanently hire local talent.
Being able to launch a nearshore hub with a fully equipped office space within weeks can be a difference between delivering or not on their product roadmaps and strategic goals.
Product and technology executives, as well as experienced domain experts, are used by the company to vet talent. Tech-related challenges and personality interviews are included in vetting to ensure that their clients are matched with the right talent.
Anubhav said that engineering, product, and design roles are hard to fill. They are in high demand by both tech companies and non tech companies.
With dedicated focus on providing an exceptional experience both for customers and remote talent alike, MVP Match is rapidly connecting proven and experienced professionals, wherever they may be located, with exciting and high impact projects.
