As the company reaches a landmark anniversary,
Founder and Chairman V K Mathews reflects on IBS Software's ongoing
mission to redefine the travel industry
TRIVANDRUM, India, Sept. 29,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- This month marks the
25th anniversary since IBS Software was founded by V K
Mathews, with a team of 55 engineers and a vision to transform the
travel industry through digital technology. Over the last 25 years
the company has made good on its mission, providing innovative
technology to the aviation, cargo & logistics, cruise,
hospitality and loyalty industries, supporting businesses to
digitise their operations as travel and customer expectations
rapidly evolve.
With a workforce of over 3,500 employees spread across 40
countries, IBS Software has not only developed a sophisticated
suite of products, it has fostered
and encouraged communities of customers and partners to discuss
critical topics that inform the development of solutions that make
a difference to their businesses. It has grown its customer base
since the pandemic, with 14 of the top 20 airlines, six of the top
15 hotel chains and six of the top cruise lines choosing IBS
Software to support their digital transformation journeys.
V K Mathews, Chairman, IBS
Software, reflects, "After
25 years, our goal at IBS Software remains clear; to help
businesses grow their revenue and market share, reduce their cost
of operation and enable them to offer best-in-class customer
experience."
"The travel industry was an
early adopter of technology, but re-engineering highly used IT
systems is complex, and progress has historically been held back by
the shackles of legacy technologies. Now, travel businesses must
liberate themselves. COVID 19 catalysed a significant shift from
supply to demand, putting travelers in the driving seat and a
pressure on the industry to offer hyper-personalised choices to its
customers."
"Today, any travel business also
needs to be a technology business and IBS Software can help them on
that journey as a disruptor and trusted partner for the next 25
years and beyond."
