SUMMARY:The Hundred Live: Turning Corporate Travel Insights into Action
DESCRIPTION:GBTA | Chicago Chapter \n \nJoin Katie Virtue and Paul Tilstone of temoji consulting for a high-energy session that brings The Hundred to life. Built on interviews with 100 leaders across corporate travel suppliers\, this session goes beyond the report to explore how the industry’s priorities are evolving right now and what that means for 2026. \nWe will unpack the six themes from The Hundred\, with real-time perspective on how each theme has shifted since the research was completed and buyer views on how these trends are playing out inside their programs today. \nBuyers and suppliers will then turn insight into action by working together in an interactive workshop to rank the themes by their impact on 2026 and define what those priorities will mean in practice.
