The leadership read
Fresh capital is a hiring signal before it is anything else. For Puresta, a raise in the sector funds leadership depth, scale, go-to-market and operational rigour, rather than any single appointment. Watch where Puresta hires first across Asia; that is where the capital is really pointed.
Market context: MitchelLake's Talent Market Index sits at 97.6 (Neutral), down 3.4 on the prior month; Asia hiring signal is running rising (+4.2pts).
Puresta: 1 signal in the last 90 days.
