At the core of our business is tourism. Through a diverse range of travel products and our in-house developed technology, we enable Travel Partners to advise their clients, create personalised travel experiences and manage bookings, combining digital innovation with human expertise. Our business model incorporates Network Marketing, offering Travel Partners two ways to develop their activity: through their own travel sales and, if they choose, by building, mentoring and developing an organisation of other Travel Partners. Beyond technology and business opportunities, iCliGo is built around people. Our team, our international community and the relationships we create are central to how we operate, collaborate and continue to evolve. *Our story* ## It all started with a different way of seeing travel. “But what if that passion for travel could become something more?” - Founded in 2014 in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, iCliGo was born from a simple observation: people were already sharing travel recommendations, inspiring others to discover new destinations and helping friends and family plan their journeys. - The idea took shape when our founders recognised an opportunity to bring together two needs: travellers looking for more personalised, complete travel experiences, and people who wanted to turn their passion for travel and recommendations into a professional activity. - What began with a limited range of travel offers soon revealed a much bigger opportunity. Travellers wanted more than a hotel voucher. They wanted flights, accommodation, destinations and experiences brought together in journeys designed around their needs. *That insight became the foundation of iCliGo.* - Over the years, we evolved from a specialised travel agency into a technology-driven tourism company, developing our own digital platform and expanding an international community of Travel Partners. - Today, we continue to build on the same belief that inspired our beginning: that technology can create new possibilities, but it's people, their knowledge and their connections that make travel truly meaningful. *What guides us* ## Our gold principles We connect people with meaningful travel experiences and empower individuals to build fulfilling professional journeys in tourism. - **Purpose** - To create opportunities through travel. We believe travel can open doors, connect people and create possibilities that go far beyond the journey itself. - **Mission** - To shape the future of travel by connecting technology, people and opportunity, helping Travel Partners build sustainable businesses and travellers enjoy better journeys. - **Vision** - We aspire to become a global reference in travel technology, transforming how people experience travel and creating new possibilities for professional growth in tourism. *Where we are* ## iCliGo around the world - **iCliGo USA** - With our US headquarters in Miami, Florida, we are strengthening our international footprint, connecting markets, people and opportunities through a shared vision for the future of travel. ([Contact the team](mailto:usa@icligo.com)) - **iCliGo Europe** - With our European headquarters in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, where iCliGo was founded in 2014, and an office in the Canary Islands, Spain, we continue to strengthen our presence across European markets.
