Our take

Remote and hybrid working have become the norm in recent years, and the benefits for both employers and employees means that this trend is here to stay. One of the downsides for employers though is that they often need to provide physical equipment to their remote workers in order for them to do their jobs, which requires a level of procurement and equipment management that many companies lack the skills and expertise to manage effectively.

Firstbase exists to solve this issue, providing an equipment management platform for remote workforces which allows companies to automate hardware onboarding and offboarding, manage financing and track equipment locations within a single software suite. The company aims to simplify device management, streamline procurement and give employees access to the hardware they need.

After raising a significant amount of capital in multiple funding rounds through 2021 and 2022, Firstbase aims to scale its solution. Originally working mostly with smaller startups, it is now building a client base of larger companies with hundreds or thousands of employees. It also has plans to grow internationally, expanding its operations in the US, UK and Europe, and is well poised to meet the needs of the growing remote workforce.
