25. Wen-Wen Lam of NexTravel (FULL SHOW)

NexTravel is, in many respects, a classic travel startup in that it started out with one idea and then quickly pivoted to another.The U.S.-based company, launched in 2015, as a consumer-facing leisure trip platform but realised that it could switch fairly easily to a service that focused on the needs of business travelers.At that point, a few years into its history, business travel was still a reasonably quiet sector on the startup front.This relative head start allowed co-founder and CEO, Wen-Wen Lam, to build a brand (and its associated technology behind the scenes) that has since gone on to capture a decent amount of share in a market that has, in recent years, mushroomed in terms of investment and profile for new businesses.  NexTravel now stands alongside a number of peers in the startup wing of business travel that are giving the incumbents - the large travel management companies - plenty to think about.Lam is this week's guest on How I Got Here. HIGH is a weekly show produced by PhocusWire and Mozio, aimed at getting the inside stories behind startups and innovation in travel and transportation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
