History

[edit]

Babinec led TriNet through several acquisitions of smaller professional employer organizations, including Boston-based HR Logic Holdings,[7] John Parry & Alexander and the Outsource Group of Walnut Creek, Calif.; E3 Group of Dallas; and Boston-based HR Logic Holdings.[8]

The company went through its own rounds of equity financing, including an investment by U.K.-based staffing firm Select Holdings, LLC (later renamed as Vedior). In 2000, the company was incorporated as TriNet Group.[9] In 2004, Vedior sold its minority interest in TriNet to General Atlantic, a growth equity firm.[10]
