Moder is a finalist in the 2026 Skift IDEA Awards

Moder Named Finalist in the 2026 Skift IDEA Awards

For the second year running, Moder is heading to the finals. We’ve been shortlisted in the 2026 Skift IDEA Awards, in the Operational Streamlining category under Travel Technology.

The Skift IDEA Awards are widely regarded as the travel industry’s top innovation awards, and this year drew over 490 entries from companies around the world. Moder made the cut for how it brings hospitality operations together in one place: rooms, rentals, experiences, dining, and hourly products, all run from a single platform instead of a patchwork of systems.

It’s a milestone we don’t take lightly: back in 2025, Moder became the first Finnish company ever shortlisted in the award’s history. Making the list again this year tells us that first nod wasn’t a fluke.

“Being named a finalist again confirms we’re on the right track – not just for Moder, but for travel industry as a whole,”

says founder and CEO Matti Ala-Outinen.

The finalists were selected from global entries based on creativity, ingenuity, and innovation. The winners will be announced August 26, 2026.
