HRS will roll out its Meetago solution for small meetings in South-east Asia by the end of this year.
Beyond cost savings, corporations will gain from simplified processes and transparent reporting in this meetings expense category. Online software that standardises steps for small meeting planners has driven the growth of the service in Europe and Asia over the past two years, where companies have recorded savings of up to 17 per cent on their small meeting programmes after implementing Meetago.
In addition to online meetings RFP functionality, Meetago’s global network of support staff, offers corporate clients local expertise for managing small gatherings. Meetago works with a company’s procurement strategy, including leading online booking engines, to ensure smooth data flow and efficient connectivity.
HRS initially invested in Meetago in January 2015, expanding the reach of the small meetings solution to its clients beyond Europe and adding HRS’s extensive hotel inventory to the solution.
Meetago’s transactions from HRS clients have cumulatively doubled each quarter since then, and the solution is now used in 18 countries. All of the content from HRS’ network of 350,000 hotels, including corporate rates from 210,000+ business-grade independent properties, are available to corporate clients using Meetago.
