HRTech Interview with Sagar Khatri, CEO of Multiplier

Sagar, we’re delighted to have you at HRTech Cube. Can you please tell us a bit about your background and what led you to start the company?
I’m happy to be here. Early in my career, I experienced firsthand the challenges of international expansion: the complex regulatory landscape, the daunting time constraints, and the substantial resource investments required to establish legal entities abroad. This experience ignited the spark that would become Multiplier.

We are so proud that Multiplier has helped more than 2,000 customers tap into global talent pools in 150+ countries, allowing them to hire the right people for the role—no matter where they are. We support our customers by taking care of their employment contracts, payroll, taxes, and benefits, eliminating the need to open a legal entity abroad.

Hiring talent globally is becoming more common, with companies focusing on skills rather than location. How do you see this trend shaping the future of work?
Tapping into the global talent pool means businesses can find the best person for the job without compromise. However, until recently, global hiring was out of reach for most companies. Multiplier provides technological support for companies that want to build skill-based teams.

Hiring for skills over location has lots of downstream benefits. Businesses with a global workforce are also more prepared to sell to a global customer base. It’s not just that they can operate around the clock, tapping into different time zones for continuous productivity. It’s because team diversity often translates directly to innovation, and global teams can better meet customers where they are.
