Northstar Sells Inntopia to Outside Interactive in Strategic Move

Northstar Travel Group has officially sold Inntopia, its sophisticated software division known for its integrated booking, marketing, and business intelligence solutions for the travel and hospitality sectors, to Outside Interactive Inc. While the financial details of the transaction remain undisclosed, this move is part of Northstar’s strategic refocusing on its primary offerings in media, events, and marketing solutions for the global travel industry.
Since acquiring a majority stake in Inntopia in 2014, Northstar, under the ownership of EagleTree Capital since 2016, has nurtured Inntopia into a valuable asset within its portfolio. Jason Young, CEO of Northstar, expressed his pride in Inntopia’s growth and contributions, stating, “We are proud of the incredible value Inntopia has delivered to its customers as a part of Northstar. We appreciate the passion and commitment Trevor and the entire Inntopia team brought to our business. We wish them great success going forward in their partnership with Outside.”
Trevor Crist, founder and CEO of Inntopia, reflected positively on the partnership with Northstar, acknowledging their pivotal role in its evolution from a startup to an enterprise technology powerhouse.
Inntopia, established in 2001, has become a key player in software development for the outdoor leisure, resort, and destination travel markets. Its technology stack, including a marketing CRM, e-commerce platform, and business intelligence products, supports major industry clients such as Vail Resorts, Alterra Mountain Company, and Big Cedar Lodge.
Outside Interactive, known for inspiring and engaging outdoor enthusiasts, reaches over 300 million unique users annually and will likely leverage Inntopia to enhance its technological offerings and broaden its impact within the outdoor and travel communities.
