From its early days as TripActions to its evolution into an AI-powered global T&E solution, Navan has continued to build around a simple goal: Make travel easy for every traveler by being the best travel agency on the planet.
Navan enters its next chapter as business travel continues to accelerate. The company estimates its addressable market at approximately $185 billion, and Navan’s proprietary Business Travel Benchmark report shows business travel growth of more than 41% over the past three years and more than 16% YoY in 2025 alone — outpacing consumer travel growth of 5.3% over the same three-year period and 0.1% YoY in 2025, as recorded by the TSA.
