Polywork, a new type of business social network has raised $13 million in new funding from Andreesen Hororwitz and other investors. Think of it as an alternative to LinkedIn. From the a16z blog… Polywork focuses on letting people tell their own stories and all they’re capable of, so we can meet new people, supercharge our teams, and unlock creativity. From capturing details like who you collaborated with on various projects to career highlights, to a system of community-created badges reflecting both personal and professional traits, Polywork is building a new professional network, from the ground up, that reflects how we work in 2021. As a bonus, Polywork profiles can also be hosted on any custom domain instead of Polywork as a simple way to represent your online identity.   https://hrtechfeed.com/linkedin-alternative-polywork-raises-13-million/   Graphite Solutions, Inc. today announced the completion of a new $15M equity raise to scale its sales, marketing, recruitment, customer success and product development efforts.  Graphite is the leading technology platform that helps Enterprise companies find, hire and manage highly skilled remote consultants on-demand.
