MBAandCo Scores $1.2M In Round Led By MMC Ventures To Scale Up Its Elance-For-MBAs

mbaThe recession has fuelled a boom in mobile workers as businesses down-size to consultants and freelancers. So there has clearly been an upsurge in platforms to aggregate that talent in marketplaces. Back in 2009 Daniel Callaghan and Adam Riccoboni created MBA & Company to aggregate all those business school graduates who have no doubt found that its easier to consult than it is to fight over the tickle of jobs out there. Think elance for MBAs. Now the startup has secured 800,000 in funding, led by MMC Ventures with co-investment from Piton Capital, and existing investor Cabiedes. They've also appointed David Kelly, formerly COO of eBay and Lastminute.com, as Chairman; and Aleksi Asikainan, the founder of Madbid.com, as CTO.
