Join us for breakfast at our first chapter meeting for 2024!

Topic: The Crystal Ball: See what the Future Holds for Strategic Travel and Meetings Management

If you could see into the future, how would you start to make strategic decisions today? FESTIVE ROAD got out their crystal ball to share the big drivers of change for the next decade in their Macroscope 2.0 Report. Hear what leading travel and meetings managers think about these trends and how to build a program for success. Our discussion will cover the following three objectives:   

1. Envision the impact of the change drivers

2. Consider the big picture and how it affects companies and your program
