TravelPerk Launches Team Event Management Solution


[ad_1]

Travel management platform TravelPerk has launched a new solution designed to allow clients to organize events-based travel.

Named TravelPerk Events, the solution is designed to help teams plan, book and manage business trips for company events like offsite meetings and seasonal parties.

According to TravelPerk, the tool was developed in response to the growing trend of hybrid and remote working models in which teams are distributed across multiple locations. Microsoft’s recent Work Trend Index shows more than 70 percent of survey respondents would like flexible and remote working to continue as the world adjusts to the “new normal” following the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

The company said TravelPerk Events users would have a single solution for managing team events, such as sending invitations and tracking responses; sharing trip details including attendee names, logistics, agendas and a wider itinerary; keeping attendees updated with additional details or changes; and viewing attendees’ travel plans, including arrival and departure times and accommodation details.

Attendees have the option of booking their trip through the event page, eliminating the need for planners to organize travel and accommodation via email with participants, according to TravelPerk.

TravelPerk said Events is live on its platform and will be updated with additional functionality over the coming months.

TravelPerk has pursued significant international growth throughout 2021, having acquired travel sustainability firm Susterra in September, U.K. travel management provider Click Travel in July and U.S. rival NexTravel in January. The company raised $160 million in Series D funding in May.
