HOW IT STARTED

Why we’re here

Our founder Emilien Coquard came to India in 2011, where he was managing a development centre of a French company. On the one hand, he was impressed to see the level of talent people had, and on the other he was frustrated to see how poor the environment was for Indian engineers working in services companies. So, he decided to create a company where the engineers would be in the centre of everything. That’s how The Scalers was born.

How it started
OUR STORY

How The Scalers took off

Our journey is just getting started, but take a look at how it’s been so far.

After arriving in India in 2011, Emilien Coquard creates The Scalers in late 2014 out of a desire to bring transparency to a notoriously opaque industry. His ambition is to build the best company in the world, a place where world-class engineers can fully unleash their talent and people are at the heart of everything.

Emilien and future COO Deepak continue formulating the strategy. They pour hours and hours into building the business from the ground up. Unreliable electricity, plumbing troubles, relentless admin — these are the hard yards on the road to success! Even budding entrepreneurs need to get their hands dirty from time to time…

It’s February 2015 and The Scalers finds itself a new home. In an office without meeting rooms, innovative solutions are a necessity. New surroundings spawn fresh ideas and bonds are formed as the business grows and reaches adolescence.

2016 sees The Scalers get down to serious business. Making the leap from working with startups to enterprises, building a team of 100 developers for the governement of Ras al Khaimah — one of the seven Emirates in the UAE.

The Scalers keeps adding partners and expanding operations with new hires in Dublin and Krakow. Alongside this, Emilien and the leadership team future-proof the model and implement a policy of continual improvement to produce greater value for The Scalers’ partners.

The Scalers continue to expand into new markets, open their first office in London, establish their presence in APAC, and scale up teams and office spaces of key partners.

My idea was simple: solve the talent shortage for pioneering European businesses by bridging the gap to the incredible talent in Bangalore. And it works.

OUR ETHOS

We’re people people

Our partners don’t call their teams “offshore” anymore. They treat them as an integral part of their team, genuine colleagues, not outsourced help.

 

It’s all about people and enabling their personal growth — scaling them up in the same way we do our teams.
