DoHop, Kayak, and travel shopping comparison engines inside some of the larger portals have a new venture-backed competitor on the scene now that Sofinnova Partners and Walden International have invested €8M in Travel Meta Search, a recently formed search engine business for airline tickets, hotel rooms, car rentals, and the like.
