London, United Kingdom, March 20, 2026 / TRAVELINDEX / Following the successful Asian launch of TOP25destinations, the world’s first AI-powered travel guide ecosystem, Travelindex Group is proud to announce its official global expansion.
Led by the industry visionary Founder and CEO Bernard Metzger, the rollout of the TOP25 Restaurants and TOP25 Hotels series aims to redefine hospitality marketing through advanced technology and strategic partnerships.
To spearhead this international growth, Travelindex Group has appointed Mafalda Borea as Chief Content Officer. Borea will oversee the editorial vision and content strategy as the platform scales its data-driven recommendations to new territories.
“This is the right moment to take our AI-powered ecosystem global,” said Bernard Metzger. “Our mission is to support the hospitality industry with a sophisticated marketing tool that connects discerning travelers with the highest standards of excellence. After our proven success in Asia, we are ready to empower businesses and travelers worldwide.”
Borea joins the leadership team while continuing her influential roles with UN Women UK and IF Experience. With a professional trajectory spanning from CNN to founding a sustainable tourism platform, she brings a unique perspective to the intersection of luxury travel, culture, and social impact.
“I am thrilled to take on this challenge,” said Mafalda Borea. “I am particularly excited to highlight the women leading the hospitality industry that have the power to inspire future generations. It is a dynamic industry I’ve missed, and I am eager to return by using AI to deliver meaningful, high-standard travel journeys.”
