We're pleased to welcome Gilmar Barretella as Managing Director of Seekda. Gilmar brings over 20 years of SaaS and technology leadership experience, including senior roles across the Valsoft ecosystem and earlier work at Google supporting strategic initiatives in the travel sector. His appointment comes as we continue investing in our platform — expanding distribution capabilities and developing AI-driven solutions to help hoteliers grow direct revenue and improve efficiency. At Seekda, we work with more than 4,000 hotels globally and hold an estimated 40% market share in Austria. The focus under Gilmar's leadership is clear: consistent execution, stronger commercial performance, and continued product development. In his own words: "Seekda has built a strong foundation supporting independent and multi-property hotels. Our focus now is on consistent execution and delivering measurable value to our customers. We see clear opportunities to expand our platform, strengthen distribution, and introduce practical AI-driven capabilities that improve performance." Seekda's platform — including our AI Powered Booking Engine, Channel Manager, Seekda Sphere PMS, and Seekda Stay and Pay — continues to deliver strong outcomes and industry recognition. Excited for what's ahead. #HospitalityTech #SaaS #Leadership #Seekda #HotelTech Seekda Gilmar Barretella
