Major Driver In The Freelance Platforms Market
The freelance platform market is poised for growth due to the increasing adoption of freelance platforms by established companies. Established companies, recognized for their specific products, services, or platforms, are leveraging freelance platforms to connect with skilled freelancers for temporary projects and immediate needs, avoiding the costs and overhead associated with permanent employment while accessing specialized talent. According to WINaTALENT, an Estonia-based company, over 48% of Fortune 500 companies utilized freelance platforms for hiring in 2022. Furthermore, in 2023, Don’t Do It Yourself (DDIY), a US-based company, reported that the number of freelancers in the U.S. reached 73.3 million, up from 70.4 million in 2022. This increasing adoption by established companies is driving the growth of the freelance platform market in 2023, 2024, and 2028.
