About the Speaker Session

Customer support and duty of care are paramount, and threats are not always foreseen or visible.  The past two years have been a stark reminder of the need to be flexible, patient and ensure your crisis response plans are maintained and tested regularly. Travel buyers and suppliers will gain an understanding of the travel risk management guidelines and explore real-life scenarios as we discuss ISO31030, along with how a corporate travel policy impacts travelers’ well-being. 

 

About the Conference 

The joint event produced by the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) in partnership with the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) will address best practices in corporate travel, meetings, incentives, conferences, and events (MICE); and tourism. The two-day educational and tradeshow event, under the theme “Getting Back to Business Travel, Tourism, and MICE,” will highlight the challenges and solutions as the industry continues to take shape during post-pandemic, including business travel best practices in procurement-oriented approaches in policy, risk management, sustainability, and the future of business travel within the context of the global and Asia-Pacific region’s pandemic recovery.
