Vybe Networking

Raising 500k in preseed/seed funding for business traveler networking.

Facebook Twitter LinkedIn

Vybe Networking, vybenetworking.com or Vybe app, is an app that will match up two or more business travelers with similar business backgrounds and interests for food and entertainment. The app will match the closest people to you, right down to the same hotel, and send out introductory emails. It will then make suggestions from Yelp and Google for dinner at a local bar, restaurant or entertainment venue that would be good for networking. Once a time and location is set through a series of selections, and algorithms, Ubers will be sent to pick up all parties. Let the networking begin!
 
There are 1.2 to 1.3 million business travelers per day in the US with a total of 460 million business travelers per year. Our initial goal is to capture all those that have a LinkedIn Account, 279 million, in the US and Canada. There are 950 million members worldwide. Business travel is expected to be 217 billion dollars in the US alone in 2023, and by mid 2026 it’s expected to be 1.6 trillion dollars. There are millions more travelers across Canada, South America, Europe, China, Australia, and South Korea.
 
Please see presentation below for more detail:

 
There is currently no other app that brings business travelers together to network. Advertising on LinkedIn, social media sites, and news platforms will help the app get traction. We can also offer a 30 to 60 day free trial until we get the amount of subscribers needed to sustain the business. If we capture a mere 1% to 5% of all US & Canada LinkedIn business travelers, approximately 2.7 million to 13.9 million customers, charging a rate of $10 per month per subscriber would generate between 27 million and 139 million in recurring revenue every month. Vybe Networking can also be white labeled and sold as a software service (SaaS) to companies with significant travel needs. Advertising and Corporate Partners will also ad millions each year.
 
The app development company we partner with will handle all of the back end and development of the app and create any software as a service for individual companies and in multiple languages. There will also be tech support and 24 hour app support. Vibe Networking will provide several features to protect the privacy and safety of those who use the app. Women can decide whether to be matched with women only, or to also meet men, with an option to call an Uber at the touch of a button if they would like to leave early.
 
In my one-on-one research with thousands of business travelers, I found that every one of those people were looking forward to this app being developed and rolled out. The biggest complaint of business travelers, besides trouble with flying, is that they are generally unhappy because they travel alone and don't get out into the cities they are traveling to. This app is the solution to making the travel business industry more exciting and fun after the work day is done so get out and Vybe!
