In 2015, Navan co-founders Ariel Cohen and Ilan Twig, tired of fighting with hard-to-use legacy travel and expense tools — and dealing with the resulting collateral damage — created a new corporate travel solution. The tool enabled users to easily book, view, and manage their travel and expenses in a single platform. Relentlessly innovative, the pair combined AI, data science, and a seamless user experience to take the first steps on the path toward building what would become Navan.
