Le Royal Meridien Shanghai
China's domestic volume of business travel grows year-on-year and its international business traffic shows no signs of slowing down. What pressures are foreign multinational corporations and Chinese companies facing in this environment? Changes to the approaches by companies responding to the country's economic evolution can alter the demand matrix and ultimately the supply pipeline of business travel products. The agenda also takes into consideration the unique elements that influence China's approach to managing business travel. Join a community of business travel professionals at this forum to listen to customers and suppliers share their observations about the new pressures facing the business travel industry and how they are meeting these challenges.
