“Expansion of our team size by more than 2.5x reflects our growth trajectory. We have stalwarts from the industry joining our leadership team across various functions. The aim is to have 50,000 active gig workers by the end of this year, pacing towards the medium-term goal of having a million-plus active gig workers by 2025,” said Chirag Mittal, Co-Founder & CEO Gigforce.
