Social travel planning and sharing site Travellution raises €300k
Skift Take
Travellution is joining the travel social network party a good six months after the early entrants started pivoting or closing once they realized that there's already a travel social network called Facebook.
Travellution, the Paris-based travel website allowing users to plan, share and follow trips, has announced the closing of an additional financing round of over €300k, the relocation of its Paris offices to Paris Incubateurs in eastern Paris and the addition of two new advisors, Mr. Olivier Fleurot and Mr. Pierluigi Paracchi.
