Travel and event booking platform Troop has partnered with Riskline to incorporate safety and security information in its planning tool.
Previously known as TroopTravel, the platform enables event planners to select appropriate venues and destinations based on data-driven criteria including cost, convenience and attendees' combined emissions, with verified safety and security data now also added via the Riskline partnership.
“Covid-19 has changed the priorities of how to plan in-person meetings. While in the past, cost was a main deciding factor, today safety is the core driver. We’re very excited to support this by offering Riskline data feeds to our customers,” says Dennis Vilovic, founder of Madrid-based Troop.
Emanuele Scansani, director of partnerships & strategic relations at Riskline, adds: “Events and travel planning has changed significantly as a result of the pandemic. There are now multiple risks to take into account which planners need to mitigate and minimise the impact on time, resources and cost.”
