Winding Tree and Travel Forward to host open-source Hackathon

Open source travel distribution platform, Winding Tree, announced that they will be hosting their third travel hackathon with Travel Forward, the newly created technology track of World Travel Market. The hackathon will take place between November 4-6th 2019 during the WTM 2019.

WTM, short for World Travel Market, is the world’s largest travel trade-show with 50,000 people attending from the travel and hospitality sector and includes a list of established businesses, and startups.

Key industry leaders such as Air France, KLM, and Etihad Airways have participated in Winding Tree’s previous two #HackTravel hackathons, one in Prague in December 2018, and the second most recently in Lisbon in July 2019.

“We are honored to be able to participate in World Travel Market (WTM) and Travel Forward in such a profound way,” said Pedro Anderson, COO, and Co-Founder of Winding Tree. “WTM is one of, if not the, biggest event in the travel industry, and we’ll be able to showcase our technology to an audience like never before. Each Hackathon we’ve held in the past has had impressive results, showing the possibility and necessity for open-source technology among travel and hospitality companies, and I’m sure this one will be no different.”
