Below, we asked Mathias Lundoe Nielsen, founder and group CEO of Entravel, to share strategic priorities for 2027 and what has been learned since founding.
Strategic goals for 2027
2027 is about scale. Entravel will embed travel inside more of the apps people already use. Ratestellar will continue to scale its hotel API with live inventory and room level intelligence across the world’s largest travel companies. And Expereon will bring settlement, reconciliation and financing into one financial operating layer for travel. The three businesses reinforce each other - Entravel creates consumer demand, Ratestellar powers rapid distribution, and Expereon moves and finances the money behind it. Our ambition is simple—build infrastructure the travel industry cannot operate without.
Key lessons learned since founding
The biggest lesson is that the most valuable problems in travel are often the ones nobody sees. We started by making travel faster, cheaper and easier to distribute. That exposed problems deeper in the stack—old systems, fragmented hotel supply, slow APIs, poor room data, manual reconciliation, expensive settlement and working capital trapped for weeks. Each problem led us one layer deeper. The second lesson is to build where you have structural distribution. If your technology sits inside businesses that already move millions of customers and billions of dollars, you do not need to manufacture demand. You need to build infrastructure they cannot operate without.
