SkillPages operates an online marketplace that helps people offering practical services (e.g., plumbing, web design, piano tuning) connect with customers, using Facebook’s social graph to surface real‑world connections. The company says it has over 5 million members across 160 countries, including roughly 1.5 million in the U.S. and 1.5 million in the U.K., and presents over 100,000 people with work opportunities daily. Founded in 2010 and launched in January 2011, SkillPages is headquartered in Dublin with an office in Palo Alto. The product roadmap includes location‑based mobile apps to make it easier to find nearby skilled people and enhancements to its “SkillGraph” matching technology. The company plans to accelerate user growth and expand its engineering team, increasing headcount from 32 to around 42 by year‑end. The new funding will specifically support U.S. expansion, a mobile push, and additional engineering hires.
