Headout has been recognized with two major awards at the 2025 Top Client Appreciation Night hosted by Mandai Wildlife Group Singapore — a proud moment that reflects our growing impact in the region and the strength of our collaboration with one of Asia’s most respected conservation and wildlife organizations.
We were recognized with two prestigious awards for both performance and innovation:
The Top 10 Performance for 2024 award, which highlights our significant contribution to Mandai's growth through outstanding guest engagement,
The Most Innovative OTA award, which acknowledges the creative approaches we've introduced to the partnership, elevating traveler experience.
This recognition is the result of months of cross-functional work, powered by operational precision, traveler-first thinking, and an incredible partner relationship built on trust, feedback, and shared ambition.
“To be recognized by Mandai Wildlife Group, not just for performance but for innovation, is an incredible honor. It speaks to the strength of our partnership and the kind of thoughtful, high-impact work we strive for every day,” said Varun Khona, CEO and co-founder at Headout. “We’re proud of what we’ve achieved together and excited for what’s next.”
We’re excited to deepen our footprint across Singapore and Southeast Asia in 2025, with expanded local portfolios, improved partner tooling, and dedicated support to unlock even more value for travelers and partners alike.
We are deeply grateful to the Mandai team for their unwavering belief in our vision and partnership. This recognition wouldn’t have been possible without the hard work and dedication of every Headouter. As we look ahead, we are more committed than ever to delivering innovative, impactful experiences for travelers and strengthening our collaboration with Mandai for years to come.
