Securing the Safety of Business Travellers in a Turbulent World

The Association of Corporate Travel Executives (ACTE) Executive Forum on securing the safety of business travellers in an increasingly conflict-ridden world has attracted a full house of corporations and their business travel supply partners.

The upcoming Singapore Executive Forum on the 28th of February will bring the need for heightened security measures for business travelers into closer view. With the help of experts in the field of travel security and disaster recovery, the program will identify the hot spots in the region, the potential of actual danger and the measures that both company and traveller should adopt to remain safe.

Ms. Caroline Seah, Administration & HR Administrator at PepsiCo Beverages International (Asia-Pacific) said, “You don’t have to be a high-profile travelling business executive to become the target of a deviant mind. Sometimes it’s a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. More people are becoming victims of “crossfire” making it more important for companies to increase their business travellers’ sense of awareness of their environments.”

Attendees will be introduced to the threat of terrorism and other criminal activities to the executive traveller, the triggers for such occurrences, the preventive measures that can be taken and procedures to adopt in the case of crises.

ACTE is proud to present these events as part of its mission to advance the industry with the support of its regional sponsors Abacus International, Business Travel International and Raffles International Hotels & Resorts. The official venue for this executive forum is the Raffles City Convention Centre in Singapore. For more information and to register for this event, please visit www.acte.org
