Using TROOP, companies have saved millions in travel costs, employee time, and carbon emissions, making it possible for people to meet and build stronger relationships with their colleagues, clients, and partners, even in times of tightening budgets and travel restrictions.

Why TROOP?

TROOP believes in the power of shared experiences and the unifying impact of in-person meetings. We are on a mission to bring people together by transforming the meeting planning process.

At TROOP, we have ambitious goals to be the leading provider of end-to-end meeting planning tools.

TROOP’s Culture?

TROOP is an international, remote-first company. Our colleagues are spread across the globe, with entities in Spain, South Africa, the UK, and the United States.

We are doers who roll up our sleeves and get into the details; we own the problem and only stop once it is solved.
