Ariel Cohen, CEO of Navan, expressed confidence in this decision, stating, “Appointing Michael as CEO of Navan, EMEA, was an obvious choice. His expertise in scaling businesses has proved instrumental as Navan becomes the leader in travel, payments, and expense in Europe and sets the standard for travel and expense management globally.”

Prior to joining Navan, he co-founded and served as the CEO of Comtravo, a technology-driven travel management company based in Berlin. Comtravo was acquired by the Navan Group in 2022.
During his previous role as the General Manager of EMEA, Michael Riegel achieved significant growth, with Navan’s EMEA booking volume and spending volume more than doubling year-over-year. Additionally, he played a pivotal role in the successful launch of Navan Expense in Europe and contributed significantly to the adoption of NDC (New Distribution Capability) within the company.
