Mews, the industry-leading hospitality cloud, has won the Tech Hero Award at CIODAY2024. The award is presented to companies that have built their business around a digital core, allowing them to continually adapt to industry changes and lead the way with innovations.
Bernhard van Oranje, Chairman of the Jury and founder of Levi9, had this to say: “It feels surprising that a relatively new company like Mews can make such a big difference in such an established industry. To optimize operations so that users have a return on investment in just seven months is a huge achievement and one that deserves to be recognized.”
The ceremony took place at the NBC Nieuwegein in front of a crowd of technology leaders. Mews was praised for its innovative, user-friendly and scalable platform that empowers hoteliers to provide frictionless stays for their guests.
Our growth journey over the last 12 years has been incredible, said Matt Welle, CEO of Mews. A decade ago, it was only a handful of us putting in the hard hours in a basement, and now we have over 1,200 incredibly talented people working from all over the world. It’s an amazing feeling to see the whole company get this kind of recognition and it’s only going to inspire us to keep innovating and pushing the boundaries to transform hospitality.
The selection process was partly based on the Digital Acceleration Index devised by Boston Consulting Group (BCG), a digital capability assessment tool that compares digital performance with peers, the industry average and digital leaders. There were also interviews, pitches and discussions with the candidates and jury members.
The award is not the first Mews has won this year. It was also named Best PMS at the HotelTechAwards 2024, World’s Best Independent PMS at the World Travel Tech Awards 2024, Best Hotel Technology Company 2024 – Europe at the LuxLife Awards, and the Top 250 Golden Scaler Award, to name a few.
