What is MeetingPackage?

MeetingPackage is making meeting room and event space bookings as easy as booking hotels (btw. if you didn't know majority of hotels or venues meeting rooms and event spaces you can't book online. It's all manual and offline through Request For Proposals "RFPs". If you don't believe it try to book a event space online from your favourite hotel...) This is what we are here to solve!

To achieve this we have developed 3 products that enable any hotel or venue to go from current offline processes to fully automised and digital process. Increasing revenues while reducing costs.

• MeetingPackage Venue & Sales Management (between friends VSM) that allows venues and hotels to manage and enhance the content, inventory, pricing, business rules, connectivity/integrations and much more.

• MeetingPackage Internet Booking Engine (between friends IBE) that allows venues and hotels to white label and implement the technology within their own website through a no-code platform or via our APIs.

• MeetingPackage Channel Manager and Global Distribution (between friends CM) that allows hotels and venues to distribute their inventory and take control of sales through one interface to over 10 000 channels that are connected with MeetingPackage.

On top of the above we have developed our own Open MeetingPackage API (between friends OMPA) that allow marketplaces, travel agencies or any other provider to seamlessly fetch availability, content and pricing from any of our venue partners.

In short our ambition is to have more than 100 000 venues with live availability connected by 2025.

Will you help us achieve this as this will be one hell of a ride
