The Awards is a prestigious recognition programme, founded in 2016 by Directors Club United Kingdom, to celebrate new technologies and their impacts on customer experience, operational performance and employee wellbeing. The Award for Guest Experience highlights technology innovation that reimagines customer experience in a hospitality setting.

The company, designed to create happy travellers and happy travel managers, developed a globally scalable SMS solution to enable easy user verification and SMS notifications for delays, trip details and booking changes for more than 600,000 travellers across 40 countries. After implementing the system, Emburse Go’s app adoption rates increased by 70-80 percent, significantly expanding its global reach in just months.
