The full-lifecycle global recruiting platform now recruits, employs and onboards in over 150 countries.
NEW YORK, February 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Horizons, the leading global employer, today announced its rebranding as Remote People.
The rebrand reflects the company’s evolution from an employer of record provider to a full-lifecycle recruitment and expansion platform. Remote People recruits talent, employs them compliantly, and supports entity formation in over 150 countries.
“Horizons was the right name for where we started. Remote People is the right name for where we are going,” said Antoine Boquen, CEO of Remote People. “We’re no longer just an EOR. We take care of the entire hiring and expansion experience, from recruiting to compliant hiring to onboarding. The name says exactly what we do: we’re the people behind your remote workforce.”
A unique partner, from first hire to local presence
Remote People now offers employer of record services as well as internal recruiting, contractor management, U.S. public porting, global mobility and entity formation consulting.
Profitable since 2020, the company has seen sustainable growth, rather than backed by venture capital. The focus was on infrastructure and dedicated human support, rather than sales and marketing development.
“We invest in compliance, not billboards,” as Boquen succinctly puts it.
