Planning Starts NOW!

GBTA is seeking industry professionals to contribute new ideas, solutions, and innovations for current issues and challenges that confront the travel industry. Now more than ever, content focused on the industry’s recovery will be critical. Our highest-rated presenters have challenged conventional wisdom and have been willing to share real “lessons learned.”

GBTA event attendees include corporate travel managers, consultants and industry suppliers from the airline, hotel, car, card, agency, and travel technology communities. Please note the audience consists of travel buyers and suppliers new to the travel industry (0-3 years), mid-career managers/directors (4-10 years) and seasoned, strategic industry professionals (11+ years).

We recognize there are still many post-pandemic unknowns that may affect your 2021 budget and travel approvals. However, we hope you will continue to submit outstanding content. Opportunities may arise for you to deliver your session virtually. As a reminder, GBTA is always looking for webinar topics, white papers, toolkits, and other resources to share with our members.
