Internova Travel Group (No. 11 on Travel Weekly's 2023 Power List) is combining its Travel Leaders Corporate and Altour operations, and the Altour brand will be used going forward.
Gabe Rizzi, currently president of Internova's corporate travel division, will have an expanded role. He has been named president of Altour and will also oversee corporate travel services in Mexico, Your Event Solutions and Internova's international network of partners.
"By combining our corporate travel division under the Altour name, and with Rizzi's broad leadership experience, we are establishing an even stronger identity in the marketplace," Internova CEO J.D. O'Hara said.
Rizzi has been with Internova since 2016. He has nearly 30 years of leadership experiences in sales, marketing and operations, including with AT&T, Gateway Computers, and Dun and Bradstreet.
Altour founder and CEO Alexandre Chemla left the company at the end of 2023. Internova acquired Altour in 2017.
