Bangalore, India, February 8, 2017 (Newswire.com) - KNOLSKAPE, the leading provider of modern workplace talent transformation solutions, announced record revenue growth across both new client acquisitions and existing accounts. This rapid expansion resulted in nearly 100% increase in revenue, making this another strong year for the company. Key highlights:

• KNOLSKAPE strengthened its position in the talent transformation space by deepening relationships with existing customers, and increasing the client base by over 60%. The expansion was witnessed across all major industry verticals that KNOLSKAPE operates in, including banking and financial services, GICs, IT/ITeS, manufacturing, retail, pharmaceuticals and others.

• The company also expanded its presence in the APAC region by more than doubling its revenue and client base. The rapid expansion in the region is testimony to the fact that all companies, irrespective of regions, have an urgent need for new age talent transformation solutions to address the challenges of a modern workplace.

• KNOLSKAPE raised series-A funding from Inventus Capital Partners and The HR Fund. The funding is designed to expand the company’s operations in India and abroad to help meet the growing demand for its solutions.
