Sabre Corporation partnering with The BTA, moderated by Managing Partner Raj Sachdave MCIPS at the amazing The Londoner Hotel - what a combo!… What a night! Debating “Global Content Fragmentation in Corporate Travel” with Clive Wratten, Richard Addey, Sarah Harvey and Sammit Khanndeparkar. Refencing the paper that Black Box Partnerships produced on behalf of The BTA, GEBTA and Association of Travel Management Companies in October 24, it unsurprisingly highlighted that 100% of corporate buyers see fragmentation as a problem. This Global topic was felt throughout the research gathered and the sentiment that came out of the paper. #Fragmentation #personalisation can increase costs and causes more traveller and spending friction. The subject continues to be addressed with the aim of price parity, across corporate travel channels. “Show me your content!” Trusted.

We look forward to hearing your takeaways Clive Wratten following the Australia Corporate Travel Summit | ACTS. The topic of fragmentation in our sector remains key in all corners of the world as highlighted in the recent white paper we produced, in partnership with The BTA Association of Travel Management Companies and GEBTA Navigating Fragmentation in Corporate Travel https://lnkd.in/eEHGqKWc. “The business travel industry has so many moving parts, there is more fragmentation than ever. This provides threats but also opportunities for all commodities in the challenging world of corporate travel to offer value and ROI to consumers”. Clive Wratten, Chief Executive The BTA. Trusted.

It has been 6 weeks since we collaborated with The BTA, GEBTA and Association of Travel Management Companies and shared a white paper on the much debated topic - Content fragmentation in the travel industry The BTA Board Director and CEO Inntel Douglas O'Neill “This is more than just traveller tracking; it is about ensuring travellers are prepared before their trip and we as their TMC can return them home safely and efficiently in an emergency. Fragmentation has a detrimental effect on traceability". Take a look at the full paper here for more insights and views: https://lnkd.in/e2JXReQu Clive Wratten Marcel Forns Tass Messinis Trusted.

Caroline Strachan and Doreen Burse bringing the airline ✈️ category strategy to life - without mentioning NDC 🙌🏼 Doreen urging people to give your teams power “ I trust your judgment” and to provide “content when and where people want it” Sounds simple, but food for thought.
