Sustainability-focused travel management platform Goodwings has raised almost $3 million to bolster its presence around the world and invest in the development of additional features.
The raise will also allow the Denmark-based company to create its Sustainability Suite 3.0, which will include new tools for businesses to limit their travel-related carbon footprint.
“We’ve already set the new standard for business travel, and we are determined to keep pushing the boundaries to shape the future of business travel, for good,” Goodwings said in a release.
Founded in 2015, Goodwings aims to provide "greater control" over travel-related emissions, as well as reliable data and additional options for responsible travel practices, making it more accessible and appealing to businesses. According to its website, Goodwings takes a three-tiered approach that includes end-to-end booking for ground transportation, flights and hotels, access to 24/7 global support and a suite of sustainability features.

The new capital comes from existing investors including Global Cleantech Capital, Jettime owner Lars Thuesen and Patrick Diemer, former CEO of Airplus and co-founder of BT4Europe.
Goodwings said the funding reflects a “growing demand” for climate-oriented solutions in business travel.
"With my background in the travel industry, I know firsthand how vital it is to adapt to changing demands,” Thuesen said. “Goodwings is not only embracing that change but leading it, with solutions that actually make a difference. I’m thrilled to be part of their journey and to help shape the future of travel.”
As Goodwings works on Sustainability Suite 3.0—which follows its launch of Sustainability Suite 2 earlier this year—the company said it will also focus on improving user experience by adding new features like rewards programs and expanding partnerships.
In 2023, Goodwings raised $1.5 million in late seed funding.
