Trift

Trift is a tech startup based in Ireland, founded in 2019. The company's slogan, "Trift is a platform to inspire and impact; we curate stories from the region," encapsulates its vision to bring about a positive impact through conscious travel. The platform offers curated trip itineraries, guides, and stories from travelers and local businesses, particularly tour operators, aiming to deliver impact and leave a positive footprint. Trift aims to revolutionize travel experiences by focusing on destinations often portrayed negatively in the media or subject to common misconceptions, especially in underdeveloped economies. The company strives to bridge cultures and challenge cultural myths and perceptions, presenting unconventional travel as a compelling choice for discerning travelers. This involves emphasizing the significance of the people and experiences in a destination rather than the destination itself. The company's last investment of €45.00K came in the form of a pre-seed round from Propeller Shannon on 26 January 2019. With its commitment to conscious travel and curated, personalized experiences, Trift is poised to carve a unique space in the travel industry, catering to a growing demand for authentic and meaningful travel experiences.
