June 2013 Meetup - Agoda: an Entrepreneurship Success Story! + Work at Agoda!
Details
Agoda: an Entrepreneurship Success Story!
Note: this is a joint event with WebMob Thailand (https://www.meetup.com/WebMobThailand). No need to RSVP on both pages though. Thanks!
Everyone knows Agoda (http://www.agoda.com/), but the successful company is very discreet, giving few talks and offering few opportunities to meet the team behind the achievements.
That's why, for this new Bangkok Entrepreneurs meetup, we are very happy to welcome Timothy Hughes (http://th.linkedin.com/in/timothyhughes), Vice President Marketing at Agoda, who will tell us the Agoda story from the start to today and who will give us his insight on the online hotel booking market in Thailand and in South East Asia.

Before joining Agoda, Tim has worked for several big names in the hotel industry, including Orbitz and Expedia, and has a strong experience of the hospitality business.
His experience with several companies in several countries will make his speech and opinion very unique and interesting.
Work at Agoda!
Looking for a job? A new career? How about landing a job at Agoda?
The Agoda Marketing and HR team will be there to present Agoda jobs opportunities, answer your questions and receive your application!
Networking
The talk will be followed by the usual Q&A session and the networking time, giving everyone the opportunity to meet and further explore the topic.
