Lastminute.com Group's name didn't start out that way.

BravoFly Rumbo switched its corporate identity after an acquisition of the former European darling of the online travel world in 2015.

Spearheading the business since 2004 is Fabio Cannavale, a former founder at Spanish online travel agency eDreams, who pushed BravoFly through a string of acquisitions and growth programs in the intervening 11 years.

The company now sits in the mid-tier of European OTAs, headquartered in Switzerland, with websites operating in 40 countries and 17 languages.

Cannavale joins us at the latest guest on How I Got Here.

HIGH is a weekly show produced by PhocusWire and Mozio, aimed at getting the inside stories behind startups and innovation in travel and transportation.

It's hosted by PhocusWire's editor in chief, Kevin May, and Mozio co-founder and CEO David Litwak.
