ITB Business Travel Track
The pendulum swings back: from easing of companies’ purse strings after the pandemic, to tightening the screws again and thinking twice about trip approval. The 2025 Business Travel Track, hosted by VDR (the German Business Travel Association) brings together industry professionals to discuss the many changes and challenges of the year. Join us to hear about transitions, from AI in business travel to sustainability efforts. And take that knowledge away with you to influence your business travel decisions of the future.

New distribution = greener flights? A thoughtprovoking presentation on how full service carriers are using their new distribution possibilities to drive the green agenda. Doreen Burse, SVP Worldwide Sales @ United Airlines | Mehr zu den Referierenden | |
All Change: Sustainability at the core of the modern TMC The ongoing technological advances are prompting travel management companies (TMC) to adapt. The focus is on providing sustainable travel solutions powered by AI. The booking and ticketing processes are already automated - a trend which is going to continue and become more advanced over time. A side effect: freeing up agents to support companies strategically about their travel programs. | |
Business Travel across Borders: navigating bureaucracy The A1 - one of the most debated forms in business travel and beyond. Will 2025 finally bring the desired change to kick-start a digital transformation across the EU? What is happening to entry-/exit plans promising to make European - and global - travel easier? This session takes us through what's happening in the market and what changes to expect (hopefully soon). Kathrein Walter, VP of Growth @ Visumpoint | Mehr zu den Referierenden | |
Car rental: market demand vs emission targets The sustainability debate continues with our panel discussing market versus governments demands. Who "owns" the CO2 emissions of the fleet? What needs to be reported where? And what can be done to drive "green" behaviour on the roads? | |
CSRD: How Europe is leading the way on sustainability GBTA's commitment to drive the sustainability agenda has taken on a new level: partnering with Accenture they launched the global Sustainability Acceleration Challenge in September 2024, with figures published first at the November conference in Copenhagen. This ongoing initiative is a great tool for companies to benchmark their own efforts and understand what else they can do to create a sustainable travel program.
