Circula

This month we welcomed the cheerful faces of our partner Circula’s, sales team. We had the opportunity to get the teams together, learn new things about each other’s teams, collaborate, and also have fun together at dinners and activities in Barcelona.
As Juliette Korauer, Head of Partnerships at Circula says ‘’While we're used to working together virtually, having the opportunity to meet face-to-face was an invaluable experience for both our teams as we've created an even stronger partnership. We got to dive deeper into the benefits for our common customer base – and our sales team is more than ready to spread the word about TravelPerk! We want to thank TravelPerk for the warm welcome and are looking forward to our next visit! - Greetings to you TravelPerkees from your 26 Circulator visitors ‘’

It wasn’t just our partners who came to us, the TravelPerk team also traveled this month! TravelPerk was on the road to meet our spend management partners in Europe IRL! Starting with…

Rydoo

Another opportunity we had this quarter was to meet with our partners from Mechelen, Belgium. The foundation of any partnership is trust, communication, and transparency, and this is what we are building through our IRL meetings around Europe. Either meeting in London, or Barcelona and other times in Belgium, meeting with our partners is a great opportunity for good laughs, team bonding, and future plans.
’Having the opportunity to meet our partners in person provides an unmatched value. Our face-to-face meetings have helped us create a meaningful relationship with our TravelPerk peers and we are excited to continue building a stronger and better joint solution together’’ said Justin Borja, Head of Partnerships at Rydoo.

In Sesame we take protecting the environment very seriously.
