Work from home? Work from anywhere? Expectations of how and where we work are rapidly changing. A trend to freelancing and becoming your own boss was already noticeable before COVID, but with the pandemic that trend has accelerated. While corporate giants are here to stay, there are an array of freelancers and startups entering the finance and technology sector. One of the leading companies, Wedo, bridges the gap by removing financial and technical obstacles through its integrated banking tool. The transatlantic social communication SaaS serves the $4T global market of solopreneurs, freelancers, coaches and startups by building a strong business portfolio. The woman behind Wedo, Indiana Gregg, CEO -5x tech founder and herself a former freelancer, is now working on removing technical and financial barriers to entry for members of the Wedo platform.
Indiana has always welcomed the opportunity of working with people from diversified backgrounds and this is exemplified in the diversity of the team at Wedo. Indiana’s team at Wedo includes David Jaques (Director, founding CFO of Paypal), Anand Singh (CTO) Dan Coyle (COO), Kirsten Granzow (CMO), Sophia Arlt (UX), Laura Duff (Social Media and Podcasts), and Loren Richards (former magic circle lawyer). Wedo operates distributed and remote teams based in six different countries. As a small but multi-cultural team, the talented professionals at Wedo are highly creative exchanging ideas over cultural borders.
The target audience of this fintech platform are coaches, freelancers, entrepreneurs and startups. “We want to make it easy for people to start a side gig for free to try to find their niche and how and for whom they would like to work”, says Indiana.
Wedo stands for the future of work as it enters the professional SaaS & fintech sector. In the future, the focus will be much more on trading knowledge rather than goods. The innovative platform is built to support this new “trade” perfectly. Market studies predict that by 2027, 52% of the workforce will be freelancers. The total size of the market Wedo serves is $4T globally, a number that is expected to grow steadily as an increasing number of people around the world are set to work from home or from anywhere.
Wedo allows real-time live-streaming commerce via its audio/video drop-in platform. The online tool can process in-stream payments, provide invoices and bank in one seamless application. Wedo was launched in 2020 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, and the platform’s mission is to solve the pain points of freelancers, coaches and SMEs.
Giving a clear picture of the works in the future, Wedo can turn out to be a game-changer for creative professionals. The banking and fintech tool is continuing to adopt the latest technological advancements in this ever-changing market.
