Pioneers in the meeting industry
The need for change in the meetings industry
In a world where digitalization simplifies every aspect of our lives, the business meetings industry lagged noticeably behind. While we can bank, order groceries, and book travel with a single click, organizing meetings remained cumbersome. Requesting quotes, long waits for availability, and difficult negotiations were still the norm. Onemeeting recognized this gap and posed a fundamental question: why can't booking a business meeting be as easy as booking a hotel room or a plane ticket?

Onemeeting recognized this gap and posed a fundamental question: why can't booking a business meeting be as easy as booking a hotel room or a plane ticket?
A vision became a mission
This question led to a search for a completely new approach. CEO Luc van Bussel and strategist Michiel Heilijgers believed that true progress was only possible by reinventing the entire process. They wanted not just minor optimizations, but a technological and people-focused revolution in the way meetings are booked and managed. The result of this vision is the OMS – Onemeeting System: a powerful platform built on 43 years of experience in the meetings industry. Everything Onemeeting learned about hospitality, venue management, and technology was bundled into a single system that thinks like a meeting expert.
Ten years of pioneering for a
digital breakthrough
Building OMS was an intensive ten-year process, filled with experimentation, collaboration, and perseverance. Together with Gateway Group and a team of developers, hospitality professionals, and strategists, Onemeeting worked on a system that removes the complexity of the meetings world and enables real-time booking—without quotes, wait times, or uncertainty. OMS is more than software; it's the tangible result of a mission where technology and human vision converge. This breakthrough marks not the end, but the beginning of a new era in the meetings industry.
