Navan (NASDAQ: NAVN) has launched Navan Events, a unified platform designed to streamline venue sourcing, attendee travel, and financial reporting for corporate meetings and events. The platform aims to address the administrative friction and compliance challenges created by manual processes and patchwork tools in legacy event management. By centralizing the entire event lifecycle, Navan Events provides a seamless experience for users ranging from small team offsites to large customer conferences.

Platform Capabilities

The new solution delivers comprehensive capabilities designed to modernize event planning:

Strategic Expansion

Navan Events represents the next step in the evolution of Navan's advanced venue sourcing and planning capabilities, which were announced earlier this year. The platform is available in the U.S., UK, and European markets this week, with plans to launch in other markets soon. Navan Events will exhibit at The Business Travel Show 2026 on June 24-25 at Excel London.

"Navan makes life easier for our users so they can focus on being there versus getting there," said Galen Grady, SVP and GM of Navan Events. "Nothing replaces real, in-person connections, but planning and coordinating events can be a major time suck. Our customers want the same seamless experience for managing meetings as they do for all of their other needs. Enter Navan Events, which brings all those scattered pieces together in one place."

Navan (NASDAQ: NAVN) has expanded its European footprint through new integrations with regional travel suppliers ITA Airways, Caledonian Sleeper, and Virtuo. The partnerships will add a direct New Distribution Capability (NDC) connection with Italy’s national air carrier, overnight rail services in the UK, and mobile-first car rental bookings in France to Navan's platform. These additions are designed to elevate localized inventory and improve booking options for European businesses.

Accelerating NDC Leadership with ITA Airways

Navan is enabling ITA Airways content via Lufthansa Group’s NDC API, using the latest version 24.1. This integration provides travelers with exclusive content not available on legacy platforms, including ITA's Light (LGT) and Business (BXX) fare classes. The latest NDC API generation also unlocks a superior post-booking experience through seamless automation with enhanced speed and efficiency.

Prioritising Comfort with Caledonian Sleeper

The integration with Caledonian Sleeper allows Navan users to book sleeper cabins on the UK's only overnight rail service. The service runs approximately eight hours between London and Scottish business hubs. This option aims to provide comfortable and cost-effective travel while maximizing traveler productivity. Caledonian Sleeper offers fully private guest rooms, some with en-suite facilities, bookable via the Navan platform.

Streamlining Ground Transport with Virtuo

Navan’s integration with Virtuo introduces a digital-first car rental approach for travelers in France and the UK. Users can book vehicles on the Navan platform and access rentals remotely via the Virtuo app. The service features 24/7 access, digital identity verification, and AI-powered damage reporting. This eliminates the need to wait at rental counters or perform manual inventory checks, allowing travelers to proceed directly from arrivals to their vehicle.

These new integrations reinforce Navan’s commitment to expanding its European presence. They add to recent inventory expansions including Swedish Rail, SAS NDC, and the bahn.business program from Deutsche Bahn.
