The Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) is the world’s premier business travel and meetings organization headquartered in Washington, D.C. area with operations on six continents. GBTA’s 9,000-plus members manage more than $345 billion of global business travel and meetings expenditures annually. GBTA and the GBTA Foundation deliver world-class education, events, research, advocacy and media to a growing global network of more than 28,000 travel professionals and 125,000 active contacts.
Managed travel is one of the largest controllable expenses within an organization and also a uniquely complex category. Finding the balance between corporate financial goals, policy compliance, traveler safety and traveler satisfaction is a problem other business categories do not face. GBTA’s mission is to provide our members the tools and knowledge necessary to navigate and improve their corporate travel program. Through GBTA’s education, events, research and advocacy, our commitment is to advance and enhance the effectiveness of the managed travel industry and the members we serve.
GBTA is hosting their annual convention in Boston, Massachusetts from July 15-19, 2017. Click here to learn more.
