Dan Yates | Source | Founder + Managing Director at Pitchup.com

In 2009, Dan Yates founded Pitchup.com, a rapidly growing online travel agency (OTA) for outdoor accommodations, which lists 6,000 campgrounds, glamping sites and RV parks in over 60 countries across Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Pitchup.com continues to grow as the outdoor travel sector expands. Since the company launched, the platform has handled £410 million worth of bookings and booked over 37 million bednights, with 5 million nights taken in the last year alone. An avid outdoorsman and former manager at LastMinute.com, Dan has years of experience in the tourism and tech industries — he even grew up on a campground in the U.K. run by his parents.
