About
Thayer Investment Partners is a strategic venture capital firm focused on helping entrepreneurs navigate the dynamic, complex world of travel.
Investment approach
- Thesis
- Travel is more than airlines and accommodations – it is how and why people leave home and what shapes where and how they choose to live in the first place. We invest on behalf of the travel industry. From horizontal platforms—payments, cybersecurity, and workforce management—to vertical solutions across loyalty, distribution, and critical operating systems, we back both industry outsiders and seasoned operators. We connect dots and open doors across the largest and most dynamic industry in the world: hotels, transportation, airlines, cruise, agencies, restaurants, events, sports, entertainment, and experiences.Source (opens in a new tab)
- Investing status notes
- Thayer Investment Partners participates in TravelX's Series A, led by Kaszek, as the company scales the RmX platform turning static airline inventory into a dynamic, continuously optimized asset.
