Attendees were given the opportunity to participate in educational sessions and an expanded trade show floor to grow their industry knowledge and contacts, and to spark innovative ideas about corporate travel management in the face of global economic crises.
"During the last few years, business travel in our country has shown considerable growth; no doubt this has been a great benefit for all those individuals and companies that comprise our industry," said Isabel Gomez, president of GBTA Mexico. "This conference is very special for us; it is a milestone in the consolidation of the Global Business Travel Association and its leadership in Latin America. The measure in which we grow professionally will help us to meet the challenges on the horizon in our expanding economy."
This year's Conference featured a presentation from GBTA Past President and Chairman Kevin Maguire, who emphasized the importance of Latin America for GBTA and its continued growth as a major region for continuing business travel education. Education was highlighted as 180 attendees took part in the successful roll out of the pilot program for The Principles of Business Travel Management course. The two-day workshop led by subject-matter experts featuring high-level discussion on a wide-range of industry best practices will debut at GBTA's 2015 convention in Orlando, Florida, July 25 - 29.
