Collaborations

Night train · Travel
Starting point
European Sleeper runs night trains from Brussels and Amsterdam to destinations including Berlin and Prague. A young travel product with a story you understand best once you have experienced it yourself.
Commercial challenge
The train was running, but awareness within the Dutch and Belgian travel industry was not there yet. There was no standing network of travel companies, partners and advisors actively putting the product forward.
Role of PitchBridge
PitchBridge supported European Sleeper with market development, introductions within the Dutch and Belgian travel industry and activations towards travel professionals.
What we did

We introduced European Sleeper to relevant travel companies and partners in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Visibility across leisure and business travel.
We worked on a broader presence with leisure partners as well as players in business travel.
An active presence in the market.
Conversations, industry events and active follow-up were part of the day-to-day execution.
Letting people experience the product.

What the collaboration set in motion
European Sleeper gained a broader network within the Dutch and Belgian travel industry, with new relationships and more awareness among travel professionals.

“Working with PitchBridge has been a real pleasure. Thanks to their extensive network we not only gained valuable connections, but also access to the knowledge and the Dutch and Belgian network in the travel world. That has helped us enormously in strengthening our position.
PitchBridge is reliable, keeps to agreements and knows exactly how to find their way in the industry. They are also proactive, solution-minded and genuinely think along about how they can add value. Communication is clear and the collaboration is independent and flexible – qualities we value highly in a partner.
In short: PitchBridge is a valuable partner for anyone looking to expand their network and work with a team that is results-driven and professional.”

The collaboration combined market knowledge, hands-on sales and the PitchBridge network within the Dutch and international travel industry.
