In 2009, PeopleStrong published ‘India Attrition Study’, a national survey on the employment dynamics in India.
In 2010, partnered with Business Today (business magazine)’ “Best Companies to Work For”[4] study - India's most-read workplace survey.
In January 2011, the company received investment from Lumis Partners, a private equity fund based out of Gurgaon (India) with investment in areas like Education, Human Capital Services, Supply Chain Management, Technology and Consulting.
In June 2013, HDFC Holdings, a wholly owned subsidiary of HDFC, one of India's largest financial conglomerates made an equity investment in PeopleStrong. Existing PE investor Lumis Partners also invested in this round.

In October 2014, the company announced the acquisition of Webpay, an HR and payroll-product provider, with the aim of adding to the capability of PeopleStrong’s cloud-based technology product suite PeopleStrong ALT and to strengthen the presence of the company in the small and medium enterprise segment. This is the third strategic investment for PeopleStrong, after Summit HR’s frontline business and IL&S (Wheebox), a leading talent assessment company in India, where the company owns majority stake.
