S02EP09 Part 1: Ulrich Pilau & Martin Reichenbach | apaleo

The first of a two-part interview, we talk with Martin Reichenbach and Ulrich Pillau, two of the founders from apaleo. Founded in 2017, apaleo is a cloud-based open management platform for hospitality companies to manage their multiple properties, connect their apps, and run their daily operations. Third-party apps can be plugged into the system through a public, two-way API, allowing hotels to create their own software stack.
