Travel Tripper, provider of hotel reservation and e-commerce solutions, has announced the opening of a new global delivery center in Hyderabad, India. This new office will capitalize on Hyderabad’s rich pool of technology talent and serve as a development and client service center for Travel Tripper’s expanding worldwide operations.
The Hyderabad office will be spearheaded by Sathish Nuggu, who will serve as Managing Director of the Global Delivery Centre. Prior to his new role, Nuggu was partner and managing director at Accenture’s India Delivery Center, most notably in the hospitality and travel segment. Overseeing a team of nearly a thousand people, Nuggu has led global client delivery projects for companies such as Starwood, Marriott, and Hilton.
“I’m ecstatic to be spearheading Travel Tripper’s new Hyderabad office and helping the company expand its global presence,” said Nuggu. “I look forward to working with such a talented team to build innovative, dynamic products for the hotel industry.”
Nuggu continues, “Travel Tripper’s integrated website and booking engine platforms allow hotels to create a beautiful and easy-to-use browsing and booking experience for consumers across all devices. This helps hoteliers to better market their hotels to potential customers and increase direct bookings, which are far more profitable than selling through any other channel.”
Travel Tripper’s client base is expanding rapidly throughout the world and India’s rich pool of talent will help to propel the company further. The Hyderabad delivery center currently plans to hire up to 65 employees in the fields of engineering, web design and development, technical support, customer support, revenue analytics, sales and business development. The new office is located at Hyderabad’s well-known Cyber Towers in HITEC City, home to companies such as Microsoft, Oracle Corporation, GE Capital, and more. “Our Hyderabad office is responsible for helping hotels to quickly and efficiently implement their websites and reservation systems, and we’ll also be working on the development of new features to continually improve our product,” said Nuggu.
“Hyderabad, particularly HITEC City, has the ideal mix of talent and infrastructure that will help us accelerate the company’s engineering efforts, push our platforms forward, scale our operations and expand globally,” said Gautam Lulla, President of Travel Tripper. “With Sathish’s expertise in the industry and well-recognized leadership, we are confident he will be a valuable asset to our operations in India.”
When asked what makes Travel Tripper stand apart from the competition, Nuggu replied: “We pride ourselves on being an innovative and agile team, quick to spot trends and bring new products to market to help hotels perform better and earn more revenue. In fact, we were recently named a finalist in this year’s TechOvation Awards for Travel Tripper Rate Match, a feature that checks current room rates against other major booking sites and automatically price matches them whenever lower rates are found elsewhere. The opening of our Hyderabad office will allow us to expand our offerings worldwide and also work on developing and testing even more innovations.”
This is Travel Tripper’s second international office. Headquartered in New York City, Travel Tripper recently opened a sales and business development office in London to cater to its growing European clientele. The Hyderabad delivery center will be located at Quadrant 4, Level 5, Module A1 & A2, Cyber Towers, HITEC City, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.
