TravelTech Firm Omio Secures €8.7 Million to Strengthen Presence in Asia

The company will use the funding to expand its business in Japan and strengthen its presence across Southeast Asia, where travel demand is growing.

The investment came from Granite-Integral, a joint venture between Granite Asia and Integral Corporation. The announcement follows Omio's recent agreement to acquire Rail Europe, helping the company grow its global travel business.

Naren Shaam, Founder and CEO of Omio, says: “Japan is one of the most exciting travel markets in the world today. Millions of travellers visit every year, but planning journeys across different operators and transport modes can still be complex, particularly beyond the major cities. With Granite-Integral’s unparalleled regional expertise, we intend to accelerate a new era of connected travel in Japan, expand our​ presence across Southeast Asia and continue building a more connected future for travel across Asia.”

CK Choun, co-Head of Granite-Integral adds: “Japan and Southeast Asia represent some of the most important long-term opportunities in global travel, with growing demand for more connected journeys across the region. Omio has built a highly differentiated multimodal platform with the technology and transport network needed to simplify increasingly fragmented travel experiences. We’re excited to support the company as it continues expanding across Asia.”

Founded in 2013 by Naren Shaam, Omio Group is a global travel technology company that connects travelers, transport operators, and travel agents through rail, flights, buses, and ferries.

The company's brands include Omio, Omio B2B, and Rome2Rio. Once its acquisition is completed, Rail Europe will also become part of the Omio Group.
