On February 2, 2026, HeyTrip’s 2026 Annual Gala themed “19° Play Power · Standing Fearlessly” officially kicked off at The Ritz-Carlton, Guangzhou. That night, lights gathered and smiles reunited. HeyTrippers from around the world came together once again, turning a year of perseverance, dedication, and growth into the most genuine heartbeat of the moment.

“19° Play Power · Standing Fearlessly” is not just a slogan—it’s a mindset. In a fast-changing industry, we choose to maintain 19 degrees of clarity and passion: staying rational without impulsiveness, persistent without hesitation; moving forward with calm judgment while staying driven by enthusiasm.

We look back on 19 years of accumulation, quietly preparing for the milestone of our 20th anniversary. As the music played and applause echoed, the answers of the past year unfolded at this very moment. A brand-new chapter for HeyTrippers has officially begun.

01 Long-Termism: Moving Forward Step by Step

At this important milestone marking HeyTrip’s 19th year, Founder and CEO Mr. Huang Lihuan shared his insights on industry trends, corporate rhythm, and future directions during the gala.

He pointed out that the travel industry is always shaped by cycles and structural adjustments. What truly determines how far a company can go is not the speed of short-term growth, but whether it possesses the ability to make sound judgments and execute steadily in an uncertain environment. Against this backdrop, HeyTrip remains committed to becoming a leading service provider in the global B2B travel technology sector, guided by long-termism and focused on steadily building core competencies for the future.

02 Organizational Growth: Making Time Our Ally

Over the past year, the company has continued to grow steadily in both team size and talent structure. HeyTrip places increasing emphasis on professional capability, growth potential, and long-term cultural alignment, continuously strengthening the foundation for organizational development.

At HeyTrip, sustainable organizational growth relies not only on sound systems and structures, but also on the dedication of every committed HeyTripper.

During the gala, outstanding individuals and teams from 2025 were recognized and honored. Among them were those who achieved breakthroughs on the front lines, those who provided stable support behind the scenes, and those who chose to rise to challenges. These awards represent more than results—they reflect a year of focus, responsibility, and perseverance.

While celebrating achievements, HeyTrip also places great importance on care and companionship within the organization. Over the past year, the HeyTrip Care Fund continued to support employees and their families through practical assistance and heartfelt care.

In addition, new employee benefits and the “Corporate Warmth for Every Family” program were introduced, integrating care into daily life and ensuring that warmth extends beyond single moments.

We firmly believe that when a company consistently cares about the growth of its people over the long term, time will ultimately reward it with a stronger and more resilient organization.

03 Technology as the Foundation: Building Long-Term Capabilities

In a constantly evolving travel industry, stable and reliable technology capabilities remain the cornerstone of sustainable B2B operations.

Over the past year, HeyTrip has continued to invest in core technological infrastructure, enhancing system architecture and mechanisms to improve platform stability and synergy, providing solid support for diversified business growth.

As technological accumulation deepens, we have also placed greater emphasis on the long-term refinement and standardized management of core capabilities, ensuring sustainability and leaving ample room for future development.

Meanwhile, HeyTrip actively follows emerging technology trends, steadily exploring AI applications in real business scenarios. Our goal is to enhance overall efficiency and service experience through technology, ensuring that innovation truly serves long-term operations.

For HeyTrip, technology is not a tool for short-term breakthroughs, but a long-term capability that requires continuous investment and refinement. Only by solidifying our foundation can we maintain a steady pace and go further in a complex and ever-changing industry.

04 Play Power Unleashed: Joy Without Limits

As the lights shifted, the stage belonged to the HeyTrippers.

From singing and dancing to magic shows and creative performances, different teams took turns to showcase their passion and chemistry. Under the glow of stage lights, another side of everyone was revealed—the joy of daring to play, knowing how to play, and playing together became one of the most vivid and unforgettable memories of the night.

The lucky draw session was one of the most exciting highlights of the evening. Prizes included well-known and trusted brands such as Xiaomi, Honor, and Shokz, along with popular lifestyle brands like Dyson, Midea, Westinghouse, and Laifen—bringing real surprises into everyday life through a blend of performance, design, and practicality.

05 Ambition with Integrity

Standing at the 19-year milestone, HeyTrip is moving from exploration toward maturity. As we approach our 20th anniversary, we are preparing for the next stage of growth with greater stability and determination.
