The story
Founded by Naren Shaam in 2013.1
Indian-born entrepreneur Naren Shaam, a 2012 Harvard Business School MBA graduate, founded the company in 2013 under the name GoEuro. Initially focused on German and British rail and bus data, the platform rapidly expanded to cover 500 operators in 36 European countries by 2018.
In 2019, the website rebranded itself as Omio and acquired the Australian travel website Rome2rio.
In January 2020, Omio expanded to Canada and the United States.
COVID-19 contraction and recovery (2020–2022)
The COVID-19 pandemic cut Omio’s revenues by 98 percent in March 2020, leading to large-scale furloughs and a switch to “keep-the-lights-on” operations.
