About WiGo Trips™

With a third of the world using social media we are more connected today than we have ever been before, but somewhere along the way we have lost meaningful connection to one another. At WiGo Trips we aim to solve this problem by connecting groups of people digitally and bringing them together in real time to experience real, raw, and authentic travel as they create shared and meaningful experiences together.

Our team, AI, and other technologies are designed to understand the human factor behind travel and deliver services and products that enrich peoples lives while fostering lifelong and real world friendships between our Members.

Our Story

​“Purpose is the reason for the journey, passion is what lights the way.”

​After organizing a group trip to Paris, experiencing a corporate layoff, and starting a masters degree that would change her world view, Cofounder and CEO Jaqui McCarthy found herself on a journey in search of meaning and purpose in a world that no longer seem to have any. Along her journey she realized that only two things matter:
  • The memories we create
  • The people we leave those memories with
It was then that she made it her mission, the WiGo mission, to bring real, raw, and authentic connection into our digital world. Jaqui went to work to create a platform that empower people to live deeper, more intention driven lives through travel, by providing them with the tools, resources, and audience to travel for a living… or just for fun, while connecting kindred travelers to group trips and shared experiences, and so WiGo came to be.

Our Values​

Ambition
We dream big, use our imaginations, and take risk. We pursue our goals with confidence, grit, and passion. We push the boundaries and find our flow by working to create the future we want to see.

Candor
We believe in creating authentic connections between our Members, partners, and most importantly ourselves. We create relationships that are founded on trust and drive our mission forward. We create environments that are safe to say the things that need to be said, even when they are hard to say.

Challenge
We challenge each other directly, embrace conflict, and encourage each other to share opinions, ideas, and insight. We present our opposing views with respect and supporting evidence to get it right, not to be right. We debate them, make decisions quickly, then work to persuade others so that everyone can execute effectively and learn.

Clarity
We communicate clearly and humbly without room for interpretation by sharpening our ideas, make them obvious to understand, and present them in a way that they are heard by the audience we are speaking to.

Collaboration
We challenge ourselves constantly, we learn from our mistakes, and we grow together in an ego-free environment where it’s ok to be wrong. We empower each other by giving guidance, asking for advice, and holding each other accountable to drive results.

Growth
We remain curious, always evolving, and in a constant state of growth. We work hard and encourage each other to go beyond the four walls.

Excellence
We are committed to the work that we do, bring our best each and every day, and do what it takes to succeed. While we focus on the end result, we remember that the reward is in the process, and whether success or failure we celebrate each day.

Inspiration
We bring a “can-do” attitude, lead by example, gain influence by sharing knowledge and empowering each other, and inspire each other by sharing our enthusiasm.

​Integrity
We are open, honest, and take ownership for the things we do. We strive to do the right things for the right reasons. We admit when we are wrong, learn, and move forward.
