“Inspiring thought-leadership that drives progress, innovation and value in managed corporate travel.”

Think Tank

For over a quarter century, Business Travel Executive has made its top priority to listen and respond to you, our readers – your concerns, your ideas and your professional goals. After all, when it comes to managed travel, nobody knows it better than you. Our purpose is to be a conduit between some of you who have gained some key understanding or perceived a rising trend, and the rest of the community of travel buyers who need to have this knowledge.

Now we have taken that role as information conduit and created a more formal approach to delivering thought leadership and innovation in managed travel. BTE has established a Buyer Think Tank, made up of six individuals from a variety of corporate programs and with a wide range of experience. Each one brings solid expertise, different perspectives and a strong voice that reflects the concerns and challenges of the industry.

One purpose of the Think Tank is to act as editorial advisors, providing grist for the BTE mill, so we can continue to bring you the most original, thought provoking stories on questions that impact our industry and your travel programs. And beyond that, they provide a clear bellwether for trends and topics that are only just on the horizon, giving us even more timely insights into the issues managed travel will face tomorrow.
