Hosted by Platinum Sponsor 

The global conversation on climate action is shifting – and in some places, even slowing – as governments cut back on commitments and incentives. Yet for companies, the business case for sustainability in travel remains stronger than ever. The challenge now is to stay the course, prove the value, and drive progress even when external pressures waver.

Join GBTA | Tennessee, as we close out with our last chapter meeting of the year, for an energizing discussion featuring Delphine Millot, Managing Director of the GBTA Foundation. Together, we’ll explore how organizations can continue to build and strengthen the case for sustainable and resilient travel – not only because it’s the right thing to do, but because it delivers measurable business results.

You’ll gain:

This isn’t just another talk on “going green.” It’s your chance to connect, challenge assumptions, and leave with the tools and inspiration to keep sustainability front and center in your travel program – because progress makes business sense.
