The Hipmunk story is one of idea versus reality, Silicon Valley versus the status quo, big challenges and an eventual sale to an unlikely suitor.

The company's co-founder, Adam Goldstein, is now candid about what happened to the company from its creation in 2010 until the SAP Concur acquisition in 2016.

From the original vision and how it evolved under the glare of an adoring West Coast tech press and curious travel media, to appearing at The Phocuswright Conference for the first time and facing the snark of a vocal rival CEO - Hipmunk had quite a ride.

Goldstein joins us as the latest guest on the How I Got Here podcast.

HIGH is a weekly show produced by PhocusWire and Mozio, aimed at getting the inside stories behind startups and innovation in travel and transportation.

It's hosted by PhocusWire's Kevin May, and Mozio co-founder and CEO David Litwak.
