GBTA Sustainability Summit: Building a Greener Future for Business Travel

Building a greener future for business travel must be part of our game plan today to make sure we can still connect people and travel for business tomorrow.  

GBTA will be hosting its second global Sustainability Summit. This one-day, high-level event, will bring together experts, industry and policy leaders to outline concrete solutions to manage the environmental impact of business travel.
