WeTravel Appoints CEO, Co-Founder Moves to CPO

WeTravel has announced the appointment of Ted Clements to Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and the migration of Johannes Koeppel, WeTravel’s co-founder, from CEO to the newly-created Chief Product Officer (CPO) role.

Under Koeppel’s leadership, the business’s c-suite expansion is a resultant of consecutive, double-digit client and transaction volume growth since 2021, which led the business to $10 million ARR and a competitive Series B funding round in 2022.

WeTravel was built as a platform to support travel businesses by digitizing and optimizing the travel booking process. Now used by more than 3,000 travel companies — to transact with nearly 500,000 travelers and thousands of suppliers, annually — the business has revolutionized how the travel industry manages their businesses with a suite of solutions that fit into an intuitive platform.

Founded in San Francisco in 2016, the globally distributed team of nearly 150 employees now works from five continents, represents more than 30 nationalities, with offices in Amsterdam, Azerbaijan and The United States.

Aligned with the company’s long-term vision to expand both its platform’s tool suite and its market share, the developed c-suite will equally focus on innovating the product’s travel-specific functions and delivering the product to the right markets with strong sales and marketing departments.
