Frontdesk has recently partnered with Madison-based Remotely, a provider of mid-term housing for remote workers, to provide an operational platform.
At BizTimes Media’s Innovation + Entrepreneur Forum last December, Frontdesk CEO and co-founder Kyle Weatherly said the company experienced its biggest challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, when most people ceased any unnecessary travel for several months.
