Origin Ventures, a venture capital firm, and Felton Group, a business services provider, led a $17m funding round in Fringe, a HR tech startup. “The demand for our product has never been greater. Given how significantly the world (and its workplaces) have evolved in the last few years, and the fact that hybrid and remote work are likely here to stay, we’re optimistic that this trend will only continue. When your people work from everywhere, providing flexible lifestyle benefits is a deal maker,” Jordan Peace, Fringe CEO.
