At The Intersection of People and Technology: Bryce Maddock, CEO of TaskUs

Starting a business is a huge undertaking, requiring the entrepreneur to assess the market, analyze the competition and get all the numerous permits and licenses from the government, secure funding, hire all the right people and finally launch the show. One of the most important aspects of any business is the staff, i.e. labor. Several corporations outsource major parts of their operations to other countries where the laws governing labor practices are more favorable for business. Outsourcing has grown over the last two decades into an enormous industry that generates billions of dollars in revenue. Companies that specialize in outsourcing of services tend to have a huge influence on certain industries. One such company is named TaskUs.
