Akshay Buddiga, Co-founder and CTO of Traba shared major shifts in the labor market with the gig economy, and best practices of hiring, managing, and retaining gig workers for a flexible, reliable, and efficient workforce.

When founding Zenjob we entered a very saturated market. Our strategy was to focus on a very tiny niche and gradually build a technology platform from one use case into an industry into a whole market to a business beyond €100m run rate and raised more than €100m in funding.

The opening keynote includes the demonstration of the first-of-a-kind generative AI solution built on top of real-time location data for driving greater visibility and efficiency in gig workforce operations.

Gig work industry leaders discuss the key business challenges, best practices, and new ways of addressing the needs of employers to hire qualified workers with flexibility while maintaining rigorous hiring standards.

The session covers the overview of the marketplace for last-mile logistics, how to hire, manage, and retain gig workers, and pitfalls to avoid for successfully scaling up your gig workforce for delivery.
