Treatwell CEO Lopo Champalimaud steps down

After 11 years at treatment-booking platform Treatwell, co-founder Lopo Champalimaud has left the company.

“I finally decided, that with the new decade, it was time for me to handover the CEO role to the very talented Kei Kaji [previously chief commercial officer],” Champalimaud said.

“Together with 600 immensely talented employees, we have built Treatwell into the largest hair and beauty booking platform in Europe, with tens of thousands of amazing salon partners and tens of millions of happy customers,” he added.

Champalimaud co-founded the platform in 2008 under the original name Wahanda, before rebranding to Treatwell in 2016. He will remain an advisor to Kaji and the Treatwell board.
