MeetingPackage and Visual Matrix forge a global partnership to streamline Group and Meetings & Events bookings

Helsinki, Finland & Richardson, Texas

MeetingPackage, the leading Central Reservation System provider for selling and managing meeting spaces and group bookings, has partnered with Visual Matrix, a trusted cloud-based Property Management System (PMS) serving over 2,500 properties in 40+ countries—including leading hotel brands like Best Western Hotels & Resorts and Prestige Hotels & Resorts.

This strategic integration enables hotels to offer real-time availability and accurate pricing for meeting rooms and group bedroom bookings directly through their website, in 3rd party distribution channels, and in the offline environment, responding to traditional Request for Proposals. While Visual Matrix streamlines hotel operations across front desk, housekeeping, and revenue management, MeetingPackage complements this by automating the distribution and booking of meeting spaces and group accommodations, empowering hotels to increase visibility, reduce manual work, and drive incremental revenue through a centralized and seamless booking experience.

The integration, led by MeetingPackage, is slated to go live by the end of H2 2025. It will allow Visual Matrix customers to manage meeting space availability, pricing, and bookings directly through MeetingPackage’s platform, reducing manual processes and enhancing operational efficiency.

Joonas Ahola, CEO and Founder of MeetingPackage, commented: “This partnership is a significant step toward our mission of making meetings and events bookable everywhere. By connecting with Visual Matrix, we’re providing hoteliers the tools to automate their M&E sales processes, reduce administrative overhead, and increase revenue through smarter booking solutions.”

This partnership underscores both companies' dedication to innovation and excellence in the hospitality industry. The companies aim to provide hoteliers with integrated solutions that drive growth and operational success.

Patty Jefferson, the Chief Development Officer at Visual Matrix, stated, "Partnering with MeetingPackage allows us to extend the value we bring to our hoteliers further by integrating a powerful, global solution for managing group and M&E bookings. This collaboration is about more than just technology, it’s about giving hotels the tools they need to drive efficiency, reduce friction, and capture revenue opportunities that were previously out of reach. We're excited to help our clients unlock even greater potential through this seamless integration."
