Tumodo, a Dubai-based startup business travel platform, has raised $35
million in pre-seed funding.
The company said the funding is “co-led by
MENA-focused angel investors” and will be used to grow its presence in the
United Arab Emirates and to develop its product. And by 2026 it aims to expand
its platform to more than 25 countries worldwide.
Founded in 2023, Tumodo said it is currently used
by more than 100 companies in the MENA region. The platform works with more
than 400 airlines and provides access to more than two million accommodation
options.
"Tumodo
is the future of business travel," said Stan Klyuy, chief commercial
officer of Tumodo.
