Tripleseat | February 03, 2023
Tripleseat, a prominent cloud-based sales and catering management platform for hotels, recently announced a collaboration with Cvent, a leader in events, meetings, and hospitality technology, creating a new integration that will unite and automate the event management and inquiry process.
This integration will connect the Tripleseat platform to the Cvent Supplier Network. As a result, event planners utilizing Cvent to submit a request for proposal (RFP) to venues will automatically be added as new leads on the Tripleseat accounts of the respective venues. To benefit from this integration, venues must be a Cvent Supplier Network member as well as a Tripleseat customer.
Moreover, the integration allows venues, particularly hotels, to gain from the global reach of the two companies. More than 15,000 hotels, restaurants, and unique venues worldwide use Tripleseat to book 10 million events and experience a 35% increase in customer revenue. Additionally, over 90,000 corporate planners use Cvent to source venues and manage events.
Jonathan Morse, CEO of Tripleseat, said, "There is no doubt that the number of events being planned and the cost per event is growing." He added, "Which is exactly why we partnered with Cvent. Our new integration will help venues that work with both Tripleseat and Cvent to reach thousands of event planners who are looking for properties to host their events in 2023."

To introduce potential guests to both properties, Tambourine designers created a dual splash page experience for Quirk Hotels.
