Gareth Jones, Impact WorkTech Founding Partner, added, “I’m extremely excited to be part of bringing Impact Worktech to market. The recent shift in the work environment in the wake of COVID has spotlighted people at work and the technology solutions that support them. People/work technology has long been the poor cousin of the enterprise suite, so it has huge growth potential as a sector. Yet, it is often misunderstood by both investors and corporate customers. Impact Worktech creates a much-needed central community of innovation, expertise, and resource to fill a strategic gap in the market.”
LaRocque added, “Impact WorkTech represents the culmination of everything we’ve done at LAROCQUE, LLC over the years. When it comes to emerging work and work technology trends, we have long been the source of truth for HR and People leaders, technology innovators, investors, and analysts. The Impact WorkTech community will bring them all together to impact the future of work together positively.”
