Take2 AI’s Post

I often feel like "Future of Work" means everything and nothing all at the same time. But what does it mean when we say we are investing in the future of work at Reach Capital? In general, I like to think that we are investing in products and tools that help to elevate workers and create pathways for economic mobility, wherever they are in their careers - exploring careers, landing the job, up killing / Reskilling, supporting and augmenting them throughout their work, providing the benefits/enablers they need to thrive in the workplace, and more. We've invested in companies, including WorkWhile (a worker-first on demand labor marketplace for hourly workers), Replit (collaborative IDE for developers), Stepful (training for the allied healthcare workforce), Take2 AI (simulation-based talent acquisition), Hopps (on-demand expert help marketplace), and so much more. As the concept of work, continues to change rapidly we've surrounded ourselves with an amazing advisory board that supports us and our portfolio companies (Maisha Gray-Diggs (MGD), Dermot O'Brien, Gordon Trujillo, Ekpedeme "Pamay" M. Bassey, Guillermo Miranda, David Landman, Ph.D., Q Hamirani) and have committed to continuously learn (check out our latest ReImagineWork report linked in the comments).  If you're building a company that is focused on improving the future of work, please reach out!

Some areas I'm personally interested in right now: 👩⚕️ Tools to augment clinicians and reduce burnout (e.g. workflow automation tools, business-in-a-box for self employment, health system focused retention and engagement tools) 👩🏭 Products that help to increase supply / liquidity or improve the productivity of existing supply, through learning in the flow of work, in supply constrained markets (e.g. manufacturing) 💻 Skills inference tools that surface skills insights from the work people actually *do* and help large enterprises with workforce planning
