In 2000, the travel agency’s name was changed to Andavo Travel. The name Andavo stems from the Italian word “andare” or “we went,” to better reflect the company’s then brand: We Travel with You. In 2008, corporate travel company Christopherson Business Travel merged with Andavo. Rivers retained the position of Andavo Travel CEO from 1991 until July 2010 when her business partner, Christopherson Business Travel CEO Mike Cameron, bought her share of the business.〔http://www.denverpost.com/headlines/ci_15247706〕 Rivers continues to operate Andavo Meetings, Incentives and Events (AMI).〔http://denver.bizjournals.com/denver/stories/2010/07/19/focus2.html〕〔http://investing.businessweek.com/research/stocks/private/snapshot.asp?privcapId=4304349〕 The business travel division of the combined company is now branded and marketed nationally as Christopherson Business Travel.
