We bring to you the latest edition of movers and shakers of the week in the Indian startup ecosystem.

As work from home becomes the new normal due to the pandemic, many executives have started to question HR’s strategic value to the firms, according to a recent survey conducted by KPMG.

More than 80% of CEOs say HR has played a leading role in responding to Covid-19, KPMG said in a report titled, ”The Future of HR in the New Reality”.

However, the survey also revealed that 60% of CEOs and executive vice-presidents said that their organisations consider HR to be an “administrator” rather than a value driver.

Meanwhile, this week social media giant Facebook has awarded over $1.98 Mn to researchers from more than 107 countries for reporting bugs on the platform. India, Tunisia and the US were the top three countries based on the bounties awarded this year, the company has confirmed.

The amount has been awarded under Facebook’s bug bounty programme, which rewards researchers and cybersecurity experts for finding vulnerabilities of the platform.
