Gregg Brockway

Who is Gregg Brockway?

As an online travel industry veteran, former co-founder of discount

online travel company Hotwire and former president of Expedia's luxury

travel company Classic Vacations, Inc., Gregg knows the ins and outs of

booking and planning travel online. When he realized the rapidly

growing number of online travel options and sites was beginning to

conspire against his own attempts to easily plan trips, he knew that

non-online-travel-experts must be having a heck of a time keeping it

all straight. Thus the idea for TripIt took shape.

Prior to his work in the online travel industry, Gregg was a director

at the private equity firm Hellman Friedman and worked in the

merchant banking group at Morgan Stanley Company. Gregg received

his MBA from Harvard Business School and has been a featured speaker at

numerous industry conferences, including TravelCom, Internet World,

eTravel, EyeForTravel and others on the topics of travel, e-commerce

and revenue management.
