Video Communications Company, Pexip, Announces Strong Internal Growth Momentum
Passes Milestone of 300 Employees
The video communications provider, Pexip, today reported that it has passed a
new milestone, with the Company now numbering more than 300 employees. Pexip was
listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange in May 2020 in Norway's first fully virtual
IPO. Following the IPO, Pexip's long-term goal is to reach USD 300 million in
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) by 2025, up from USD 66 million today. One of the
key elements of this expansion is growing the team. In its Q2 financial
presentation, the Company estimated that it would have 350-400 employees by the
end of 2020. With four months of the year to go, Pexip can now report having
passed the 300 employee mark, a growth of 65% from the beginning of the year. Of
the new hires in 2020, 60% are within sales and marketing and 30% are within
engineering/R&D. 80% of the new hires are located outside Norway, continuing the
Company's focus on international expansion.
"I am proud that we are today able to mark this milestone of more than 300 Pexip
employees. We have attracted an outstanding number of excellent applicants over
the last months. Candidates are excited about both the Company itself and how
our technology contributes to the future of work," said Odd Sverre Østlie, CEO
of Pexip.
"As we rapidly expand our workforce, we are mindful that team growth alone is
not enough. We have put in place a comprehensive recruitment process to ensure
we are hiring the right candidates, with our core values, the Pexip Way, being
top of mind. In addition, we have a heavy focus on onboarding, learning and
mentoring, to make sure that we get our new team members up and running as
quickly as possible," said Ingrid Woodhouse, Pexip's VP of People and
Development.
