Hot 25 Travel Startups for 2023: Gopass Global

Gopass Global is a data and analytics company focused on building real-time risk platforms for the travel industry. These are constructed to provide comprehensive pre-travel risk analysis of an employee’s or customer’s trip covering biological, societal and geopolitical risks, plus climate and weather at the touch of a button. We reduce the time and effort required for corporations, agencies and travel management companies to fulfill their duty of care in alignment with travel risk management standards such as ISO31030.

Strategic goals for 2023

Gopass Global had great success with its real-time analytics product focused on COVID risk and regulations. For 2023 we are looking to expand that real-time experience to a full risk product offering. Pre-travel analysis is largely a manual process with a tick-a-box approach. By providing comprehensive risk with real-time dashboards and interfacing into the corporate travel approval process, we can deliver an incredibly powerful tool.

Lessons learned since founding

You really have to prove substantial value-add if you are to influence, work with or disrupt these partnerships. Flexible technology and innovation are your tools for creating change and achieving market success.
