Our take
Way’s brand activation platform is used by boutique hotel groups and independent hotels to curate and offer experiences & events to boost brand awareness and loyalty. The company was founded on the belief that consumers prefer spending on experiences than products.
Since its founding in 2020, Way has picked up a number of well-known hotel brands including Salt Hotels and Life House Hotels in North America. And the fact that it's already expanded to an office in Paris is a good indication of its strong growth.
Since securing major funding from Tiger Global, Way has also been adding to its executive team as it looks to expand even further on the international front. Plans are in motion to pivot into adjacent sectors including retail and media, where brand activation experiences are also growing in demand.
