The Italian Business Travel Community Event
BizTravel Forum was created in 2003 from a unique idea by the President of Uvet Group and Uvet | American Express Global Business Travel, Luca Patanè. An occasion to meet, reflect, and discuss the industry with other professionals was missing in the business travel sector; an occasion that could create culture and become a valid reference point for companies and for sector operators. Over the years, Biz Travel Forum became the catalysing event for Italian Business Travel Community, an event in the sector that each year opens the doors to the most important companies in the most important companies in Italy and to the most well-known operators in corporate travel and mobility. The objective is to meet, discuss, train, and further explore the most current topics related to travel management: from globalisation and the financial crisis to disintermediation, from rationalisation of processes to management of business trips, new technology, and mobility services, and from tax laws regarding travel expenses to self-booking tools without neglecting the new purchasing behaviour of business travellers.
The heart of BizTravel Forum is its program, rich in valuable content, thanks to forums featuring authoritative and international industry professionals and executives from important companies or multinational corporations.
The highlight of the event is the traditional opening forum which, like an intense and stimulating talk show, tracks economic trends, provides a complete overview of emerging trends in corporate travel and announces future challenges.
