Today, TaskUs is a leading digital outsourcing company that provides next-generation customer experience and tech-enabled services to the world’s most innovative brands, helping them build, protect, and grow their business.

In 2008, two high school best friends, Bryce Maddock and Jaspar Weir, invested their entire life savings of $20,000 to launch a virtual B2C personal assistant company and website. The idea was simple: busy professionals could upload their tasks and requirements, and the team would handle them.

The two Founders flew to the Philippines, hired five employees, and rented a single-room office in Bacoor, Cavite.

TaskUs quickly gained a reputation for providing quality service and fostering a people-first culture where teammates could be their authentic selves. As the company expanded, it added innovative new services and took on more critical operational areas.

In 2018, Blackstone, the world’s largest alternative asset manager, invested in the company, and in 2021, TaskUs became a publicly listed company on Nasdaq.
