“Can a single Egyptian marketplace group own the full white-collar and blue-collar employment stack across the MEA region?”
BasharSoft was founded in 2009 as an Egyptian recruitment technology company and built WUZZUF into Egypt's leading white-collar job board. Over time it expanded into a portfolio of employment marketplaces — WUZZUF (white-collar), FORASNA (blue-collar Arabic-speaking workers), iCareer (employability education), and Recruitera (end-to-end hiring platform). The company has stayed focused on the recruitment marketplace category in Egypt and the wider MEA region rather than layering embedded financial services on top.
BasharSoft is founded in 2009 and headquartered in Cairo, Egypt.
BasharSoft has raised $7.7M in total (latest round: Series A, 2015).
