Case Study: Within3 scales from 60 to 250 workers globally with Papaya Global
Key results
The challenge
Within3 is a life sciences insights-management platform founded in 2008. After securing more than $100 million in growth funding in 2020, it set out to expand globally, aiming to grow from 60 workers in six locations to about 250 worldwide. It had entities in the US and UK and worked with four separate PEO partners in APAC, making every action item require reaching four different providers, so it sought a single partner that could also ensure compliance and provide white-glove service.
The solution
Papaya Global consolidated the data from Within3's four PEOs and, as an EOR aggregator with a network of in-country partners across 160+ countries, enabled immediate compliant global hiring. Within3's HR team used Papaya's CountryPedia resource during offers and centralized communication to one or two dedicated contacts.
“From a cost perspective, there was definitely an instant return on investment because we were consolidating under one partner as opposed to having multiple partners with different pricing models.”
