Dear Cornerstone friends,
Today is an exciting company milestone for us as we launch our new brand and revamped website. This coincides with the unveiling of the new Cornerstone Platform.
The new Cornerstone Platform integrates our spend management company, ApexConnect, with our robust travel operations solutions and a pioneering data platform. By placing data at the core, the Cornerstone Platform addresses the complexities and evolving trends in travel, data, and spend management in one complete platform, setting a new standard in the industry.
This integration puts data at the core to overcome industry challenges, including New Distribution Capability (NDC), cost control, data silos, the changing nature of business travel, and the critical role of artificial intelligence. This unified platform does more than streamline data management across the organization. It uses advanced data science approaches to solve the data quality issues that plague every aspect of the industry.
Every part of the travel industry has struggled with separate systems that handle different aspects of travel, data, and spend operations. The Cornerstone Platform eliminates these silos, integrating data across all functions. This integration is crucial for online travel agencies, travel management companies, agencies, and other travel sellers who need to adapt to rapid changes and demanding regulatory environments.
Our legacy in travel operations, combined with our spend and data expertise serves as both a foundation and a launchpad to innovation. Our new brand and website speak to the expanded breadth of Cornerstone’s capabilities and our vision to continue to help shape the future of the industry.
I look forward to continuing the journey with you.
Sincerely,
Mat Orrego
CEO
Cornerstone
