Description
The technology company Huspy, based in Dubai (United Arab Emirates) has begun its landing in Spain, where it plans to create more than 120 jobs until the end of 2022.
The multinational, whose activity is focused on changing the home buying and selling market through the use of technology, has just closed a financing round of 34.9 million euros. This funding will be mainly allocated to the Spanish market, where it plans to invest in technological development, strategic recruitment and analysis of new markets to promote the digitisation of a sector as traditional as real estate.
Another of the challenges that Huspy has set itself in its arrival in Spain is to attract national talent, with the aim of continuing to expand its workforce in the country, which currently has 39 people.

Digitisation and automation technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), can affect working conditions in a variety of ways and their use in the workplace raises a host of new ethical concerns.
The retail banking sector is fertile ground for studying the impacts of digitalisation on work and employment. Financial services are increasingly provided online, without the intermediary of customer-facing institutions.
European labour markets have recovered strongly from COVID-19. By the end of 2021, little more than 18 months after the start of the pandemic, employment rates in the EU were almost at pre-crisis levels.
