Travel management company FCM is inviting industry colleagues to join a free first-of-its-kind hybrid forum designed to tackle the hot topics in corporate travel through live and on-demand sessions from around the world.
Taking place on May 10, the inaugural Th!nk is positioned as the antidote to the typical industry conference, promising to apply a very different lens to the big topics shaping the future of business travel through lively debate and interactive discussion.
Described as “an original and thought-provoking program of carefully curated exclusive content,” the conference will be co-hosted by top-level guests from around the world; and to accommodate different time zones, live components will anchor the event and be broadcast over a period of 24 hours.
“Over the past two years, the global travel landscape has irrevocably changed and so have the challenges our industry is facing,” says FCM Global Managing Director Marcus Eklund. “It’s time to adjust the dialogue to what’s resonating with our customers, the buyer community and industry colleagues, and collectively address the big issues now with a nod to the future. Th!nk will be compulsory attendance for anyone involved in the business of travel wherever they are.”
FCM has assembled a respected line-up of business leaders, innovators and disruptors – including experts from Meta and Jones Lang Lasalle – to address wide-ranging themes such as the role of tech in travel innovation and understanding what the Metaverse means for the industry, and more. FCM’s Consulting arm will offer insights and data garnered from the company’s global operations, while industry body GBTA will share its latest research findings through a series of exclusive sessions.
Intended to be highly participatory, Th!nk will incorporate a number of opportunities via the event website to facilitate and encourage attendee involvement and comment.
Th!nk is both global and local. With a presence that stretches over 100 countries, FCM says it has tapped into decades of industry expertise, strong partner relationships and deep knowledge to develop region-specific segments from across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Australia and New Zealand that reflect topics resonating in these markets too.
In keeping with FCM’s business approach, flexibility is key – with attendees able to tune in wherever they are in the world at a time that suits them. In addition to the live broadcast elements, access to 24 hours of content will be available on the Th!nk event website for a limited time to view on-demand.
