Founders
Mobissimo is the brainchild of three young global entrepreneurs frustrated with the quality of travel information. They believed that there should be a better way to search for travel prices and availability.

She also co-founded France Portage, a press distribution database provider, acquired by France Telecom. Béatrice holds a BA in International Affairs from the American University of Paris and an MBA from Boston University.
