About Our Story

Our story.

If a journey is defined as moments of great courage, then ours began in 2011 in the most extraordinary way—with a young engineer’s dream and determination to forever change customer experience by putting the customer at the heart of every conversation and interaction. Living in Portugal at the time, Talkdesk founder and CEO Tiago Paiva prototyped a cloud-based solution that was easy to deploy, integrate, and operate. He entered and won a hackathon, got some seed funding, moved to America and Talkdesk was born. We were a global company from day one.

Talkdesk’s journey, like all memorable ones, has been shaped by the hands and ideas of our people, connected through the years and across generations in an endless pursuit of “a better way.” That pursuit guides our vision and values as we challenge the old status quo in order to help our customers, our partners and our employees thrive and grow. Our entrepreneurial spirit is rooted in this passion and dedication to making the impossible, possible.

Experience. A better way.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

To celebrate the uniqueness of the people that make up Talkdesk – their background, experience, and perspectives.


“We are a global company with employees and customers who come from a wide variety of backgrounds. Everyone at Talkdesk understands that our strengths lie in the differences, not the similarities. As an ally, I am passionate about actively promoting DE&I at Talkdesk because it takes everyone to create an environment where people can live and work as their authentic selves, thereby accomplishing more together than we think is even possible.”
