ULTRA ALLIANCE: FIRST MEETING
Simon is a seasoned entrepreneur with a remarkable career in travel technology. Beginning his journey and gaining valuable insights from his father's travel agency, Simon ventured out on his own, driven by a passion for data and a desire to revolutionise the travel sector. He is the Chairman of Inspire Green, was the Chairman of Inspiresport and also Innovantage (both successfully sold), and he was the CEO of CorePlace Capital. Simon was named Entrepreneur of the Year at The Cardiff Business Awards 2017. One of his earliest bold moves was founding Comtec in 1997, which focused on providing travel agents with enhanced booking choices and data accessibility, transforming the industry by transitioning agents from static brochures to PC-based systems. In 2008, Simon sold Comtec and embarked on a journey into emerging technologies. After the intense phase of working with a diverse portfolio of startups, Simon felt he was ready to return to his travel roots and set about forming Inspiretec. Inspiretec’s success is characterised by its end-to-end travel platform, including reservations, travel CRM and new single travel agency management solution.
