Founded in 2022 in Paris, Naboo has built an all-in-one software and services platform that lets enterprises book, manage and run meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE) globally. The product aggregates venue sourcing, catering, activities and transportation, delivering instant quotes and transparent pricing as an alternative to traditional agency models. Naboo combines the platform with operational support and is used by global organisations such as Meta, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, HubSpot, Figma and ElevenLabs. The company is now developing AI capabilities, including an autonomous booking agent, automated tender management and an integrated corporate payment card that plugs into clients’ existing procurement systems. With these additions, Naboo plans to move beyond events into broader “tail-spend” procurement categories that share fragmented supplier bases, complex compliance needs and multiple payment flows. The business has expanded across Europe and North America and reports rapidly growing enterprise adoption. Prior to the latest round Naboo had raised a €20 million Series A in January 2025, underscoring investor confidence in its growth trajectory.
