We identify and grow successful travel companies of all sizes in high growth verticals and niches within travel. Our focus on select travel verticals allows a wide geographic scope which allows investment andadvisory work in the United States, United Kingdom, LATAM, Europe, Middle East and Asia Pacific.All of Venture Capital Travel’s advisors have experience managing companies which helps identify and provide hands on actionable help (capital, advice, introductions, best practices, purchasing power) to our portfolio companies we advise.We know the niches, verticals and sub-verticals with in the 1 trillion dollar travel and hospitality industry to pursue (and avoid investing in) based on the geographic region, target client, current landscape, macro level trends, your resources and team and our value add beyond capital.Investing in a consumer facing mobile destination content provider in one area would be a recipe for disaster whereas the same content in a different region to different target client disproportionately increases the chances of success for everyone.The right management team, founder & managing partner with outside experts and a growing network of worldwide contacts ensures an experienced brain trust to maximize mutual success. We focus on the history, experience and dynamic of the team (do we think your team can execute on what needs to be done?) and its prospective fit within the VC Travel family of professionals and companies we advise.

| We started Beam™ in late 2014. As close friends and previous colleagues, we share a passion for building brilliant products. At Beam, we're building the most intuitive way for people to see each other on a map, moving in real-time — an app that can be trusted, is private and, most importantly, is time limited (a Beam is only one hour!).Thisis a product that anyone - friends, colleagues, family - can use knowing that after one hour the Beam is over and the sharing stops. Initiating a Beam with a contact takes just two taps. It's as easy as making a phone call. And, like a phone call, the other party must accept before sharing begins.At Beam, our goal is to build a user-focused brand that understands both the consumer and technical needs for sharing locations. The Beam vision is to bring maps to life. The brand vision is about trust. The end game is about being the standard for anyone looking to see or share something on a map. | Seed / Apr 01, 2015 |
