Did you miss this year’s conference? Or do you just want an overview of the biggest topics? Well, we’ve got your back.
After attending this year’s event (and speaking to lots of experts at our booth), we’ve rounded up the biggest trends you need to know for 2023…
1. Employee comfort is more important than ever before
Since the rise of remote work, employees aren’t keen to travel to the office - never mind taking a lengthy business trip.
2. Company cars are becoming less popular in Europe
Have you noticed fewer companies offering company cars? Sure, there are jobs that will always need cars, like regional sales manager positions. But company cars as an employee benefit are on the decrease.
A brand new survey that we presented at GBTA found that fleet managers and HR teams are planning to reduce the number of company cars they offer - and introduce new modes of transport.
3. Data is the new oil for business travel
Business travel managers are investing in new technology to get better insights into their business trips.
Many are expecting budgets to tighten next year - with fuel costs and inflation a major factor. But how can you reduce your budget, if you don’t know where you're overspending?
4. Sustainability will be even bigger in 2023
Sustainability was a massive buzzword at this year’s conference. Travel managers across Europe are looking for new ways to reduce their CO2 emissions.
