TAIPEI, Taiwan (November 2, 2020)–Over a hundred books were collected in a book drive as leading global outsourcing provider, TaskUs, celebrated the third anniversary of its Taiwan site, Adventures Intelligence.
The book drive was a symbolic activity as part of the company’s week-long celebration aptly entitled, Open the Next Chapter, recognizing teammates’ hard work and contributions, and preparing them for the future.
