From Our Past Attendees...

"Insightful content delivered by excellent speakers/panelists. Great buyer/supplier mix/ratio."

Francis Chadwick, Travel Manager, TJX Canada

 

"Thank you for hosting such a well-organized event. I really enjoyed the discussions, particularly the TMC session; the elimination process was an excellent approach to encourage thoughtful conversation and engagement. I’m already looking forward to next year’s event!"

Ian Lee, Indirect Procurement, Global Supply Chain

 

"Attending the BTN Travel Trends Conference was a genuinely valuable experience. As someone navigating the evolving landscape of travel procurement, I found the sessions both relevant and thought-provoking. One standout for me was the panel discussion structured as a bracket of top SLAs—an engaging and practical way to highlight which service-level agreements matter most for travel and procurement managers. The conversation around transitioning from an existing TMC was equally insightful, especially the guidance on contract language and managing risks around data ownership. Thanks to BTN for a well-organized and engaging event!"

“The BTN Group respectively provides travel insights across all categories of travel management by various forms throughout the year.  The BTN Toronto Conference brings together travel buyers from many different organizations but all with the same goals; to learn, to share and to expand networking capabilities.  For me personally, attending the BTN conference allowed for a more intimate engagement with both Sponsors and Canadian travel buyers.  The venue, time of year, discussions with category experts and overall content was excellent. Thank you BTN and Sponsors for your continued support in bringing together the travel industry community! ”
