Barcelona, Spain · Startup TravelPerk is a Barcelona-based corporate travel platform that replaces fragmented business-trip booking and policy management with a software-first system designed for both employees and finance teams.

In the European ecosystem, TravelPerk is one of the clearest examples of a category-defining B2B SaaS company emerging from Southern Europe and selling into the operational backbone of modern companies. It is especially relevant for startups and scale-ups managing distributed teams, customer travel, and cross-border expansion.
