Commenting on the acquisition Bhanu Chopra, Chairman and Founder, RateGain said, "We are delighted to welcome the Adara team to the RateGain family. Adara's key differentiator is its access to permissioned travel-intent data from the world's top travel and hospitality players as well as destination marketing organizations and relying less on traditional methods of tracking consumer intent. Their focus on innovation and delivering customer excellence has me convinced that together we will help the industry with reliable end-to-end intent and real-time pricing insights making it simpler for them to identify guests, acquire and retain them."

Commenting on the acquisition Charles Mi, Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Adara said, "We are thrilled to be a part of the global RateGain family.
